Amflora potato

BASF's Amflora potato was given approval for commercial growing in the EU in 2010. It is GM potato modified for starch production and was grown in small qauntities in Germany and Sweden. BASF withdrew from commercial cultivation of GM crops in Europe in January 2012, ending the planting of Amflora.
