Argentina: Agricultural Biotechnology Annual

In 2019, Argentina granted conditional approval for a record nine biotech events including the first Chinese-developed soybean event developed and field-tested under a joint venture with an Argentine company which may be approved for export to China as early as 2020. Argentina also updated its biotechnology regulatory framework to improve harmonization with international institutions, in particular with the Cartagena Protocol on Biosafety. The seed royalty system continues to be an unresolved issue.
