ISAAA
US registered, NotforProfit Charity, cosponsored by public and private sector organizations Mission of ISAAA : • Share knowledge on crop biotechnology so that the global community is more well informed about the attributes and potential of the new technologies
• Contribute to poverty alleviation by increasing crop productivity and income generation, particularly for resourcepoor farmers, and to bring about a safer environment and more sustainable agricultural development, through crop biotechnology.
