Non-GMO labeling for olive oil a non-issue

At Agbiolab we have received several inquiries about non-GMO certification of olive oil, mostly from producers who are dealing with retailers that require it. We do provide GMO tests for seed and foods as part of our DNA genetic services, and are aware of the GMO labeling controversy. Here is our attempt to provide some answers to olive oil producers and buyers: 1. The GMO controversy is not related to olive oil. Currently, there are no GMO olive cultivars in any commercial orchard or nursery anywhere in the world.
