The farm level impact of using GM agronomic traits in Polish arable crops
Brookes G, Aniol A (2005). P G Economics.
This paper is relevant to the Agronomic, Socio-Economic, and Environmental categories in the following areas:
| Crops: | Sugar Beet, Maize, and Oilseed Rape |
| Traits: | Herbicide Tolerance, and Insect Res. (BT) |
| Countries: | Poland |
| Regions: | EU |
| ImpactAreas: | Agronomic, Socio-Economic, and Environmental |
Abstract or Summary:
The data presented in this paper shows that the application and use of the GM agronomic traits of herbicide tolerance to oilseed rape, sugar beet and maize, and insect (Bt) resistance in maize offers Polish agriculture clear farm level benefits. The availability of this technology in leading varieties adapted to Polish conditions, over the next few years, could therefore prove valuable at a time when the sector is adapting to the increasingly open and competitive environment of the EU25 market.
