Q: What is a “pharm” crop?

Genetic engineering (GE) corporations are creating crops that produce proteins that are

pharmaceuticals, vaccines, industrial enzymes or reagents for biochemical laboratories.

Genetically engineered (GE) “pharm” crops are mostly grown in open fields, then after harvest the

novel protein is purified for use. Most pharm crops are in pre-commercial field trials, but at least

two proteins used in biochemical and diagnostic procedures are already being grown in corn for

commercial use – avidin and beta-glucuronidase. Other proteins from pharm crops are already in

clinical trials. Open field trials of pharmaceutical crops have been taking place every growing

season in the US since 1992. If these altered crops were released into the environment they

could never be recalled and could enter the food chain.
