This book is one of the first of its kind on socioeconomic aspects
of agricultural biotechnology in the country. It covers a range of
issues relating to potential, performance and concerns regarding
biotechnology in India and offers valuable suggestions for
policymaking. The debate on biotechnology so far focused mainly on
the likely risks instead of objectively assessing the technology on
a case-by-case basis to come out with suitable policy implications.
The present book attempts to fill this serious gap by discussing
the nature and organisation of biotechnology, present pattern of
product development, concerns for poverty reduction arising from
the nature and pattern of product development and the performance
of the first biotech product in the country viz., Bt cotton. It
uses the results of two longitudinal surveys conducted in all the
cotton growing agro-climatic zones of Andhra Pradesh and employs a
conceptual framework to bring out the performance of this
technology.
