Guyana profits from EU ban on GE contaminated rice
Rice production recorded a growth of 12.4 percent when compared with a 14.1 percent contraction in 2005. Production in 2006 was recorded at 307,041 tonnes, an increase from 277,531 tonnes in 2005. [...] The robust export growth was supported by strong demand in the European market following the mid-year ban on European imports of genetically engineered rice products, which affected supplies from the US.
