GM bananas in Uganda
In another paper in its IFPRI Discussion Papers series, the International Food Policy Research Institute has just published "Introducing a genetically modified banana in Uganda: Social benefits, costs, and consumer perceptions" by E. Kikulwe, J. Wesseler and J. Falck-Zepeda. The purpose of this 29-page paper is to examine potential social welfare impacts of adopting GM bananas in Uganda. See http://www.ifpri.org/pubs/dp/ifpridp00767.asp or contact [email protected] for more information. IFPRI Discussion Papers contain preliminary material and research results and are circulated in order to stimulate discussion and critical comment.
