As part of its IFPRI Discussion Papers series, the International Food Policy Research Institute has just published "Genetically modified food and international trade: The case of India, Bangladesh, Indonesia, and the Philippines" by G. Gruere, A. Bouet and S. Mevel. The aim of this 48-page paper is to study the potential effects of introducing GM food crops in these four countries in the presence of trade-related regulations of GM food in major importers. See http://www.ifpri.org/pubs/dp/ifpridp00740.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.
