澳大利亚塔斯马尼亚岛

    这个澳大利亚南部海岸之外的岛州从去年年初开始，无限期地叫停了转基因作物。这是澳大利亚唯一一个全面禁止转基因生物的州，不过他们对特定转基因作物的科学试验网开一面。澳大利亚的其他地区，包括南澳大利亚州，都对转基因生物有短期的禁止或限制。（财富中文网）

    The island state off the southern coast of Australia indefinitely extended its moratorium on genetically modified crops at the beginning of last year. It is the only Australian state to have a blanket ban on GMOs, though it does allow exemptions for certain scientific trials of modified crops. Other areas, including South Australia, have short-term bans or restrictions on GMOs.
