Report highlights
The Government of Mexico (GOM) continues to grant environmental testing permits to developers of genetically modified corn and other crops (see 2011 GAIN Report MX1056 Biotechnology Annual).

No permits for pilot testing, the subsequent stage in the approval process, have been approved, yet, this year.
