Slightly agree
Yes, but require the labelling of foods that are genetically modified
While UKIP has not explicitly stated a position on genetically modified foods, their general advocacy for national sovereignty and skepticism towards EU regulations might suggest a mild support for the idea of labeling genetically modified foods. This is speculative, however, as their primary political concerns do not directly align with agricultural policies or food labeling standards. The score reflects a cautious inference rather than a documented stance.

No
Similar to their stance on genetically engineered crops and foods, there is no explicit indication from UKIP's recent manifestos or public statements that they are against the use of genetically modified organisms (GMOs). Their political agenda has been more focused on other issues, making it difficult to determine a clear position on this matter without specific references.

Slightly disagree
Yes, but producers should not be able to patent seeds
UKIP's political platform, which emphasizes free market principles and skepticism of regulatory overreach, suggests they might not strongly support restrictions on patenting seeds, as this could be seen as an anti-competitive practice. However, without a clear statement on this specific issue, the score reflects a mild disagreement based on their general political philosophy rather than a direct opposition.
