GMOs and the global trading system

Evan Schulz

American Bankers Association, 2000, vol. 14, issue 01

Abstract: As genetically modified organisms (GMO) have generated increasing controversy, multilateral efforts to regulate international GMO trade have increased. beginning in 1996, discussions under the 1992 Rio Convention aimed to develop a Biosafety Protocol to regulate GMO commerce. The American failure to ratify the Rio Convention meant that the US had only observer status at those talks. Despite this, it led the Miami Group of GM proponents - Argentina, Australia, Canada, Uruguay, and the US - in opposition to strict rules governing GMO commerce.
