Mexico: Agricultural Biotechnology Annual
The only genetically engineered (GE) product in commercial production is GE cotton, with obsolete seeds and only in restricted areas. There has been no advance in plant or animal biotechnology development and production, mainly due to policy and regulatory constraints. In 2023, trade in products that may have used microbial biotechnology at some point in their value chain totaled $14.14 billion.
