Pakistan: Agricultural Biotechnology Annual

Although biotechnology laws (i.e., Pakistan Biosafety Rules of 2005, Seed Amendment Act 2015 and Plant Breeders Rights Act 2018, etc.) exist in Pakistan, the rules and administrative processes to implement the legislation have yet to be established. National regulatory bodies are in different stages of promulgating rules and administrative procedures, which need to be synchronized for Pakistan’s legal system governing agricultural biotechnology to operate effectively.
