According to a Reuters report, Brazil has begun new field trials of Bioceres-developed GM wheat. The trials, launched in March, are taking place in the center west Cerrado region, and results are expected in August. An Embrapa official told the news outlet any potential commercialization is at least four years away given regulatory timelines. The Reuters report also noted GM wheat discovered in U.S. fields previously spurred Japan to halt imports from that country.
Brazil is testing a variety of drought resistant, genetically modified wheat in a bid to become more self-sufficient in the staple crop as global supplies tighten.
