Two organisations apply for licence to plant GMO maize
The Cabinet lifted the ban on GMOs in October 2022. While lifting the ban, the government said the move would address the high cost of food in the country.
The Kenya Agricultural and Livestock Research Organisation (Kalro) and the African Agricultural Technology Foundation (AATF) have applied for a licence to plant genetically modified (GM) maize in Kenya.
The National Biosafety Authority (NBA), in a Gazette Notice on Friday, invited the public to give input on the application by the two firms to openly cultivate Bt maize.
