Jamaica: Biotechnology and Other New Production Technologies Annual
U.S. agricultural exports to Jamaica in 2024 totaled approximately $590 million, a one percent decrease from the $601 million sold in 2023. In spite of this decline, the United States remains a key trading partner for the largest English-speaking Caribbean nation. Currently, a number of U.S. exported livestock feed inputs and intermediate foods to Jamaica are produced using biotechnological methods. In 2020, Jamaica approved a national Biosafety Policy, which will guide how biotechnology and biosafety are utilized in the country.
