| description | Generating, promoting, and adopting agricultural biotechnology are on the agricultural development agendas of developing countries, but knowledge about the economic impact of agricultural biotechnology is inadequate.Policymakers, non-government organizations (NGOs), and researchers are questioning the potential and actual benefits and costs associated with adopting genetically modified (GM) crops. Therefore, accepting genetically modified food for aid or growing genetically modified crops for export or even local consumption is a contentious issue. To inform the debate, more impact assessment regarding the benefits and costs of agricultural biotechnology adoption is needed, but for this assessment to occur, researchers need to know and understand how and when the various impact assessment methods should be used. -- From Text |
