摘要：Agricultural biotechnology has been advancing very rapidly, and while it presentsmany promises, it also poses as many questions. Many dimensions to agriculturalbiotechnology need to be considered to adequately inform public policy. Policy ismade more difficult by the fact that agricultural biotechnology encompasses manypolicy issues addressed in very different ways. We have identified several keyareas.agricultural research policy, industry structure, production and marketing,consumer issues, and future world food demand.where agricultural biotechnolo-gy is dramatically affecting the public policy agenda. This report focuses on theeconomic aspects of these issues and addresses some current and timely issues aswell as longer term issues.
