May 16, 2008| |
Over 80 published papers and reviews that show the benefits of using agricultural biotechnology products are now available online in a Benefits Database shared by the Crop Life International through the Biosafety Information Resource Center of the Biosafety Clearing House (BCH). BCH is a an information exchange mechanism established by the Cartagena Protocol on Biosafety to assist Parties with implementing the treaty’s provisions to facilitate sharing of biotechnology information and experiences.
The database can be searched by crop type, biotech trait, country or region, or by a particular impact. All papers included have either been published in peer-reviewed journals or have been prepared by organizations that have summarized peer-reviewed studies.
