    "content": "On the impact of research activities, there is delayed commercialization of genetically modified cotton which has already undergone field trials in Kenya and misinterpretation of the ban to mean the ban of all research activities and initiatives. The Government has invested heavily in biotechnology and biosafety in terms of infrastructure and human capacities in Kenyan universities and research institutions, and a number of projects some at advanced stages utilising GMO technology. This includes the insect resistant BT cotton ready for commercialization, Water Efficient Maize for Africa which we call WEMA, Virus resistant Cassava for Africa (VIRCA), Africa Biofortified Sorghum (ABS), insect resistant sweet potato and biocassava plus."
