9 th ICABR International Conference on Agricultural Biotechnology : Ten Years After Ravello ( Italy ) , July 6 to July 10 , 2005 Golden Rice – the Partitioning of Influence
نویسنده
چکیده
In the past decade significant scientific progress has been made with the Golden Rice project. Significant increases in carotenoid have been achieved. Micronutrient malnutrition has been recognised as a major factor in total world malnutrition. What could be responsible for the continuing slow progress of the project? The answer may be related to the confluence of three influences on world society’s attitudes to genetically modified crops: The Convention on Biological Diversity, the Precautionary Principle, and some NGO’s opposition to GM technology.
