- 摘要：
- On October 3, 2022, Kenya’s newly elected president, Dr. William Ruto, lifted the 10-year ban on importation and cultivation of genetically engineered (GE) agricultural products. Kenya’s Cabinet cited the need to provide the agricultural sector with pest and drought-resistant crops and to adapt to climate change as motivating factors for lifting the ban. On October 28, 2022, Kenya’s High Court blocked trade and production of GE products while the court considers a case challenging the removal of Kenya’s 10-year ban on agricultural biotechnology. The High Court case is still ongoing. Importation and cultivation of GE products are currently halted due to the court case.
