ISAAA to Launch 2024 Report on Global GM Crop Approvals and Adoption

On February 27, 2026, ISAAA Inc. will officially release the Global Status of Commercialized Biotech/GM Crops: 2024 (ISAAA Brief 57). As the most authoritative source of agricultural biotechnology data since 1996, this latest report provides a comprehensive analysis of 2024 adoption rates and the transformative developments shaping research, policy, and industry today.

For three decades, ISAAA reports, pioneered by Dr. Clive James and Dr. Rhodora Romero-Aldemita, have served as the primary compass for global policy, regulatory frameworks, and industry investment.

What Stakeholders Say about ISAAA Global Status Briefs

Global agri-biotech players have long recognized the value of ISAAA’s reports. Here are some of their perspectives:

• For academic and research direction 

"It has broadened our research base direction, in particular to incorporate two new categories and a review of an existing development program." — Paul Stewart, PhD, AgriVentis Technologies, Australia.

"Updated information on area/country/GM events gives information globally, and the cross-section of views is also summarized. I share this among potential stakeholders and students." — Hari Har Ram, Dayal Seeds Pvt. Ltd, India.

• For regulatory and risk analysis

"An excellent source of information to know the latest about GM crops/events approved in different countries as a quarantine scientist." — Celia Chalam Vasimalla, ICAR-National Bureau of Plant Genetic Resources, New Delhi.

"To keep me up to speed on agricultural trends and thus a source of information for risk analysis for GM cross-contact in the supply chain." — Carlo Bulman, Upfield, Netherlands.

• For strategic communication and advocacy: 

"The statistics on global cultivation and the section on benefits to food security, sustainability, and climate change are useful for advocacy activities in the EU." — Laura Caneva, Bayer Crop Science, Belgium.

"We use ISAAA Reports as key reference in op-eds, response to media inquiries, and as social media reference points." — Jay Byrne, Media Practitioner, v-Fluence (Bonus Eventus), USA.
