Description
The USDA's Sustainable, Ecological, Consistent, Uniform, Responsible, Efficient (SECURE) rule will bring plant biotechnology regulations into the 21st century. Join us Wednesday, February 10 to hear from Dr. Subray Hegde, the director of biotechnology risk analysis programs and biotechnology regulatory services at APHIS.
Learn how the SECURE rule plans to remove duplicative and antiquated processes to better facilitate advancement of innovations to America's farmers. By streamlining access to these tools through a transparent, consistent, and science-based regulatory system, the USDA will provide industry with the ability to increase agricultural productivity and sustainability, improve the nutritional value and quality of their crops, combat pests and diseases, all while enhancing our nation's food safety.
