    Extractions: Sites: Finance Investment Having shed its initial conservative stand on entry of transgenic crops into the country, India is all set to reap the rich harvests of biotechnology that has taken the western world by storm, an international expert said in Kolkata on Wednesday. "With farmers in India endorsing Bt cotton as a miracle crop, which has none of the negative impacts earlier feared, the era of transgenics in this country is just round the corner," eminent biotechnologist and advisory committe member of the Department of Biotechnology C S Prakash said. Prakash, a professor of plant biotechnology at the College of Agriculture of Tuskegee University, USA, expressed hope that full scale introduction of Bt cotton could clearly double the current Indian production of 250 kg per hectare in about four years. Though USA, armed with the benefits of biotechnology, was the highest grower of cotton, India had the best average and could reach the Chinese average of 450 kg per hectare with Bt cotton, he said after delivering an address on 'Agricultural Biotechnology in India' at the Bose Institute in Kolkata.

    Extractions: BNET Log In Join Search We examine producer behavior, resistance evolution, and returns under alternative refuge requirements in an eastern North Carolina region with multiple corn, cotton, and soybean fields infested by a mobile pest. Returns are highest, pyrethroid sprays occur least frequently, and pyrethroid resistance evolution is delayed most effectively with no refuge requirement. Complying with the current 20% refuge requirement costs the producer $8.67 per cotton acre, or $34.21 per non-transgenic insecticidal (Bt) cotton acre. Returns are highest under each refuge requirement when one-toxin Bt cotton is not phased out; however, removal of the technology at the earliest phase-out date minimizes regional pyrethroid sprays.

Biotechnology is a field of applied biology that involves the use of living organisms and bioprocesses in engineering technology medicine and other fields requiring bioproducts. Modern use similar term includes genetic engineering as well as cell- and tissue culture technologies. The concept encompasses a wide range of procedures (and history ) for modifying living organisms according to human purposes - going back to domestication of animals, cultivation of plants, and "improvements" to these through breeding programs that employ artificial selection and hybridization . By comparison to biotechnology, bioengineering is generally thought of as a related field with its emphasis more on higher systems approaches (not necessarily altering or using biological materials directly ) for interfacing with and utilizing living things.

    http://www.library.ca.gov/CRB/96/07/BIOT_CH4.html
    
    Extractions: By Gus A. Koehler, PhD. Return to table of contents There is a rich public debate about how the potential risks associated with biotechnology methods and bioindustry products should be assessed and about whether and how bioethics should influence public policy. A general structure for guiding public policy discourse is emerging but is not fully developed. Groups perceive risks differently depending on their culture, scientific background, perception of government, and other factors. Expert opinion supports a range of positions. Deeply and honestly held but often conflicting beliefs and values about nature, animals, and the community good animate the debate. The result is that biotechnology issues are often highly contentious and debated on both scientific and ethical grounds. Two contemporary examples are: Do human social benefits such as living a longer and leading more productive life due to biotechnology outweigh the harm that an animal or groups of animals must experience to produce those benefits? Should an insurance company require information about an individual's genetic inheritance as a condition of eligibility for health insurance?
