Costa Rica: Agricultural Biotechnology Annual

Genetically engineered crop area planted increased in 2023, though it remained small and limited to cotton for seed and pink pineapples.
On July 6, the Government of Costa Rica published a draft executive decree that would dramatically reduce tariffs on imported milled and rough rice. The vast majority of U.S. rice exported to Costa Rica in 2021 (valued at $25 million) entered under a duty free quota for rough rice established by the Dominican Republic-Central America Free Trade Agreement.
