Caribbean Basin: Agricultural Biotechnology Annual

  |   Attaché Report (GAIN)   |   C12024-0003

A handful of Caribbean countries are now planning to seek funding to complete this work, which could possibly open the door to future research, field trials and eventually commercial production of GE crops in the region.
