Information Profile @ a
Glance
-
Commercial-biotech research started about 25
years back.
-
The role of the seed sector is not only to
ensure adequacy in seed quality but also to ensure varietals diversity.
-
Indian seed programme boasts one of the
biggest seed markets in the world, with annual sales at around US $920
million. Of this, domestic off take accounts for US $900 million and sales
in the global market account for the remaining US $20 million. - India is endowed with second largest area of farmland, and the largest area of irrigated land, in the world and, with its huge germplasm diversity, its seed industry is well placed to serve both domestic and international markets.
- Access to proprietary genes and technology is essential for
- developing and commercializing genetically modified varieties. Dispute and uncertainty over intellectual property rights have induced mergers, take-overs and strategic alliances.
Permit applications for GM field trials in
the US peaked in 1998; this represented the zenith of wider industry
interest in ag-biotech. -
Since 1998 the majority of companies have
reduced their permit applications for GM field trials. The exception to this
trend has been Monsanto.
-
Europe GM field trial activity has followed
a similar trend to that seen in the US, however the fall in field trial
activity in recent years has been even more pronounced. In 2000 the EU
introduced a five-year moratorium on the commercial growing of GM crops
