Agricultural Biotechnology 2005: Regional Trends in Adoption and Acceptance (55 pp., 24 figures) is an authoritative and unique report providing bio-era's independent assessment of recent developments affecting the adoption and acceptance of agricultural biotechnology on a region by region basis around the world, and the business outlook for GM crops going foward within each regional market. The report evaluates commercial, technical, and regulatory factors that characterize the business environment for each of five regions: Asia-Pacific, Latin America, Africa, Europe and North America, and for key countries within Africa, Asia, and Latin American, including:
| Latin America |
Africa |
Asia-Pacific |
| Brazil |
Egypt |
Australia |
| Paraguay |
Kenya |
India |
| Mexico |
South Africa |
China |
| Argentina |
Uganda |
Thailand |
| |
Zambia |
Phillipines |
| |
|
Japan |
Regions and key countries are evaluated with respect to:
- Availability of GM crops to meet local requirements
- Government support for research and development in agricultural biotechnology
- Intellectual property regimes
- Consumer acceptance levels
- GM crop approvals
- Regulations restricting GM products.
The landscape of key institutions (NGO's, industry associations, government agencies, companies, and others) in Africa, Asia-Pacific, and Latin America who are actively seeking to influence the debate on biotech crop adoption within key regional countries is also provided, along with hyperlinks to the institutions websites, and bio-era's perspective on where they currently stand.
