                                In 2023, China made a significant regulatory shift by issuing the first safety approval for a gene-edited crop, a soybean variety designed to produce healthier oil. This policy change marks a new era for gene-edited crops in China, accelerating their development and commercialization to address national food security challenges and boost agricultural productivity.
