Caribbean Basin: Agricultural Biotechnology Annual
Link to report:
Over a dozen Caribbean countries are Parties to the Cartagena Protocol on Biosafety. With an aim toward meeting their obligations under this agreement, many have been working toward establishing their National Biosafety Frameworks for many years. To date none have completed this work and a de facto prohibition exists on the research and production of GE products. However, no significant barriers to trade of GE products used for food, feed, or processing currently exist in the region.
