Abstract: We investigated public preferences regarding labelling and sale of genetically modified (GM) products in Poland. A Discrete Choice Experiment (DCE) was used to investigate public preferences and Willingness To Pay (WTP) for new policies changing the current regulations with respect four types of products: food, processed food, commercial products, and pharmaceuticals. In addition to reporting the general results, we analyze the social and behavioral drivers of consumers’ preferences and WTP. The study examines relationship of self-assessed and objective knowledge, perceptions of risks and benefits, and attitudes associated with GMO to consumers’ preferences.
