Organización de empresas Resumen: Within the context of the Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD), the Cartagena Protocol on Biosafety (CPB) was established as an implementing agreement. The CPB is an international agreement establishing the rights of recipient countries to be notified of and to approve or reject the domestic import and/or production of living modified organisms (LMOs). Decisions regarding import/production are to be on the basis of a biosafety assessment. Article 26.1 of the CPB allows for the (optional) inclusion of socio-economic considerations (SECs) into that biosafety assessment process. This book compiles expert assessments of the issues relevant to SEC assessment of LMOs and fundamental for decisions regarding whether to undertake such assessments at all. It includes an overview of the inclusion of SEC assessment in the regulation of LMOs that looks at the rationale for the inclusion of SECs, in the context of the existing science-based risk assessment systems. This book reviews the various factors that can and have been suggested for inclusion in SEC assessment, and provides a meaningful dialogue about the contrasts, benefits and tradeoffs that are, and will, be created by the potential move to the inclusion of SECs in the regulation of LMOs, making it of interest to both academics and policy-makers Nota de contenido: Introduction to Regulating LMOs -- The State of Science-based Regulation and GM crops -- Socio-Economic Considerations and the Regulations of LMOs -- Benefits to Producers and Society -- Consumer Choice -- Environmental Impacts -- Ethical/Equity -- Food Security -- Health Impacts -- Impacts on Biodiversity -- Indigenous Knowledge -- Intellectual Property Rights -- Labor Impacts -- Market Access and Trade -- Producer Choice -- Religious/Cultural -- Animal Welfare -- Potential Consequences from the Inclusion of Socio-economics in Decision Making -- A Decision Making Framework for Implementation Issues -- Ensuring Functional Biosafety Systems En línea: http://dx.doi.org/10.1007/978-1-4614-9440-9 Link: https://biblioteca.cunef.edu/gestion/catalogo/index.php?lvl=notice_display&id=35926 Socio-Economic Considerations in Biotechnology Regulation [documento electrónico] / SpringerLink (Online service) ; Karinne Ludlow ; Stuart J.

Título : The Coexistence of Genetically Modified, Organic and Conventional Foods : Government Policies and Market Practices Tipo de documento: documento electrónico Autores: Nicholas Kalaitzandonakes ; SpringerLink (Online service) ; Peter W. B. Phillips ; Justus Wesseler ; Stuart J. Smyth Editorial: New York, NY : Springer New York Fecha de publicación: 2016 Otro editor: Imprint: Springer Colección: Natural Resource Management and Policy num. 49 Número de páginas: XII, 426 p. 46 illus., 38 illus. in color Il.: online resource ISBN/ISSN/DL: 978-1-4939-3727-1 Idioma : Inglés (eng) Palabras clave: Environmental management Agricultural economics Economics Management Clasificación: 330 Economía en general Resumen: Since their commercial introduction in 1996, genetically modified (GM) crops have been adopted by farmers around the world at impressive rates. In 2011, 180 million hectares of GM crops were cultivated by more than 15 million farmers in 29 countries. In the next decade, global adoption is expected to grow even faster as the research pipeline for new biotech traits and crops has increased almost fourfold in the last few years. The adoption of GM crops has led to increased productivity, while reducing pesticide use and the emissions of agricultural greenhouse gases, leading to broadly distributed economic benefits across the global food supply chain. Despite the rapid uptake of GM crops, the various social and economic benefits as well as the expanding rate innovation, the use of GM crops remains controversial in parts of the world. Despite the emergence of coexistence between GM, organic and conventional crops as a key policy and practical issue of global scale, there is no coherent literature that addresses it directly. Governments and market stakeholders in many countries are grappling with policy alternatives that settle conflicting property rights, minimize negative market externalities and associated liabilities, maximize the economic benefits of innovation and allow producer and consumer choice. This book intends to fill these needs with contributions from the top theoreticians, legal and economic analysts, policy makers and industry practitioners in the field. As the economics and policy of coexistence start to emerge as an separate subfield in agricultural, environmental and natural resource economics with an increasing number of scholars working on the topic, the book will also provide a comprehensive base in the literature for those entering the area, making it of interest to students, scholars and policy-makers alike.

Organización de empresas Resumen: Interest in biofuels began with oil shocks in the 1970’s, but the more rapid development and consumption of biofuel industry in recent years has been primarily driven by mandates, subsidies, climate change concerns, emissions targets and energy security. From 2004 to 2006, fuel ethanol grew by 26% and biodiesel grew by 172%. As biofuel production continues to expand, investments in capacity expansion and research and development have been made. The 2008 food crisis emphasized the need to re-examine biofuel consequences. Biofuels remain an important renewable energy resource to substitute for fossil fuels, particularly in the transportation sector, yet biofuels’ success is still uncertain. The future of biofuels in the energy supply mix relies on mitigating potential and improving the environmental gains. This book brings together leading authorities on biofuel from the World Bank to examine all of the impacts of biofuel (economic, social, environmental) within a unified framework and in a global perspective, making it of interest to academics in agricultural and environmental economics as well as industry and policy-makers Nota de contenido: Biofuels: An Introduction of Market and Impacts -- Technologies, Production Costs, and Support Policies -- Biofuels and Global Food Crisis.-Impact on Land -- Biofuels and Poverty -- Oil Price and Biofuels -- Biofuels and Climate Change Mitigation -- Policies for Biofuels: Direct Subsidies to Biofuels vs. Carbon Tax to Fossil Fuels -- Political Economy of Biofuels En línea: http://dx.doi.org/10.1007/978-1-4939-0518-8 Link: https://biblioteca.cunef.edu/gestion/catalogo/index.php?lvl=notice_display&id=35949 The Impacts of Biofuels on the Economy, Environment, and Poverty : A Global Perspective [documento electrónico] / SpringerLink (Online service) ; Govinda R.

Organización de empresas Resumen: With increasing globalization of markets, a wider array of programs has come to affect the food and agricultural marketing system, and many of today’s programs are more consumer oriented than producer oriented. This book brings together the thinking of the best researchers addressing the topics involved in these programs, and provides readily understood analyses of the challenges and opportunities facing the food and agricultural industry and the programs which impact industry performance. Many public sector programs and institutions affecting food and agricultural marketing were designed in the early and mid- 1900s, and while they have been updated, new demands are constantly being placed on them. The authors discuss the increased scope, complexity, and globalization of markets, the changes in technology that brought these changes about, and the need for policy and program adjustments. They also discuss the development of supply chains domestically and globally, from farm to consumption. The book addresses the safety of the food supply from both domestic and international sources. and the need to assure security of the food supply from external events while maintaining trade and open markets. The breadth of programs treated makes this book valuable to students and scholars in agricultural economics and agribusiness management, as well as to practitioners and policy-makers in the field Nota de contenido: Part I. The Food and Agricultural Marketing System Overview -- 1. Evolution of Agricultural and Food Markets, Policies and Programs—Walter J. Armbruster, President Emeritus, Farm Foundation; and Ronald D.
