The Global Knowledge Center on Crop Biotechnology (KC) is the information sharing initiative of the International Service for the Acquisition of Agri-Biotech Applications (ISAAA), a not-for-profit organization that delivers the benefits of new agricultural biotechnologies to farmers in developing countries for poverty alleviation.

Established in September 2000, the KC is a science-based information network that facilitates the sharing of information and knowledge on crop biotechnology applications. It has a global mandate and supports an information network of nodes called Biotechnology Information Centers (BICs) in Asia, Africa, Europe, and Latin America. The KC is based at the ISAAA Southeast Asia Center in the Philippines.
