REDBIO has been carrying out a series of case studies on the management of appropriate agricultural biotechnology for small producers in individual countries. The studies for Argentina (by A. Diamante and J. Izquierdo, in Spanish), Bolivia (by T. Avila and J. Izquierdo, in English), Ecuador (by J. Wendt and J. Izquierdo, in English) and Peru (by S. Pastor, in Spanish) are now available on the web. It is also expected that the studies for Chile, Colombia, Paraguay, Uruguay and Venezuela will be published during 2005. REDBIO is the Technical Co-operation Network on Plant Biotechnology in Latin America and the Caribbean, based at the FAO Regional Office for Latin America and the Caribbean in Santiago, Chile.
