Bangladesh: Agricultural Biotechnology Annual
Development of the Bangladesh biotechnology sector is progressing slowly in general, but strong interest of the Government of Bangladesh (GOB) will help to drive the development and commercial application of agricultural GE biotechnology in particular. Scientific research is increasing to develop numerous genetically engineered (GE) crops which have higher yields, use fewer inputs, or adapt to climate changes, each of which help to ensure food security. The GOB is developing a regulatory framework and approval process for all GE products developed domestically or by a third country.
