- 摘要：
- On October 1, 2019, El Salvador agreed to harmonize the biosafety technical regulation for “modified living organisms” for agricultural use with Guatemala and Honduras and designated the Ministry of Agriculture as the National Competent Authority to provide authorizations and keep registries related to biotechnology. However, El Salvador still lacks the norms and surveillance network to allow the use of biotechnology in agriculture. A new government administration that took office in June 2024 has shown interest in agricultural biotechnology and how it can help advance agricultural competitiveness in El Salvador. FAS San Salvador, in coordination with the Inter-American Institute for Agricultural Cooperation (IICA) and CropLife, has been working on technical training for Ministry of Agriculture (MAG) officials about the benefits of biotechnology for agricultural productivity and the environment.
