ISAAA's GM Approval Database

September 5, 2012

The ISAAA GM Approval Database has recently been updated and reconstructed to be more accurate and user friendly.  It can be viewed at http://www.isaaa.org/gmapprovaldatabase/default.asp. It is an easy to use database of Biotech/GM crop approvals for various biotechnology stakeholders. It features the Biotech/GM crop events and traits that have been approved for commercialization and planting and/or for import for food and feed use with a short description of the crop and the trait.  Entries in the database were sourced principally from Biotechnology Clearing House of approving countries and from country regulatory websites. We invite corrections, additions/deletions, and suggestions for the improvement of the database. Contact us at knowledge.center@isaaa.org or fill out our feedback form.
