GMO: Two decades after the first commercialization
GMO - dve decenije nakon prve komercijalizacije
Abstract
Regarding transgenic plants growth and food derived from genetically modified organisms (GMO) there is a large disagreement about its environmental and health adverse effects as well as about socio-economic implications. In the spirit of the general debate which is not slowing down, in this work we have analyzed some indicators and consequences of the transgenic technology diffusion. Our work showed that biotechnology industry successfully recovered from 2008 recession, even the industry for the first time operated without losses, Also, it has been shown that the economic crisis contributed to the further strengthening of the monopoly power of the biggest companies. Bearing in mind, technological underdevelopment as well as fact that small companies collapsed during the crisis it is clear that Serbia cannot compete with multinationals at the biotech market.
Sažetak
Postoji veliko neslaganje o ekonomskim, zdravstvenim i društveno- ekonomskim implikacijama uzgoja transgenih biljaka i hrane proistekle od genetski modifikovanih organizama (GMO). U duhu opšte debate, u ovom radu smo analizirali određene indikatore i posledice difuzije transgene tehnologije. Pokazano je da se biotehnološka industrija uspešno oporavila od recesije, čak i da je po prvi put poslovala bez gubitaka. Takođe, pokazano je da je svetska ekonomska kriza doprinela daljem jačanju monopolskih pozicija najvećih kompanija. Imajući u vidu tehnološku nerazvijenost, kao i činjenicu da su male kompanije stradale u recesiji jasno je da Srbija ne može da konkuriše multinacionalnim kompanijama na biotehnološkom tržištu.
