Synopsis (short abstract) Agriculture and food production are the main fields of biosafety applications. Since the Cartagena Protocol on Biosafety (CPB) entered into force in 2003, FAO has been providing assistance to countries in building technical, institutional and information sharing capacities for biosafety, towards the safe use of modern biotechnologies and to enhance sustainable agriculture and food production. In the countries, the focus is on building national capacities at the policy and institutional level to implement the CPB and to establish effective linkages among all relevant stakeholders including the Ministries of Agriculture, Environment, Science and Technology, research and technology centers, the private sector and the civil society.
