Main Description
Based on the 2004 meeting of the International Consortium on Agricultural Biotechnology Research, this book examines the controversial issues surrounding international trade in, and policies for, genetically modified products and agricultural biotechnology. It covers analytical studies, the labelling of genetically modified products in a global trading environment, empirical trade studies, commercialized products of biotechnology and trade pattern effects, spillover dimensions, mergers, acquisitions and flows of agbiotech intellectual property, intellectual property rights, applied general equilibrium trade models and opposition to genetically modified wheat and global food security.
