Applied economics literature about the impact of GM crops
As part of its EPT (Environment and Production Technology Division) Discussion Papers series, the International Food Policy Research Institute (IFPRI) has recently published "Parables: Applied economics literature about the impact of genetically engineered crop varieties in developing economies" by M. Smale and co-authors. The 83-page paper reviews the applied economics literature about the impact of transgenic crop varieties in non-industrialised agricultural systems, with an emphasis on methods rather than findings.
