Push to Sustain Food Security: Bangkok Hosts Asian Scientists at ASCA 2024
In today’s rapidly evolving agricultural landscape, integrating biotechnology into sustainable agriculture is essential for ensuring food security.
Agri-biotechnology’s potential to transform food production relies on robust R&D, science-based regulations, effective communication, and compliance with international legal standards. These components must align to maximize benefits and reduce risks.
To address this, the 7th Asian Short Course on Agribiotechnology, Biosafety Regulation, and Communication (ASCA 2024) was held in Bangkok from September 2-6, 2024. Co-hosted by Thailand’s Department of Agriculture and the Biotechnology Alliance Association (BAA), with collaboration from MABIC, ISAAA Inc., and BioTrust-ISAAA, the event provided a platform for experts to share knowledge and collaborate.
