Biotechnology is having a significant effect on our everyday lives. In agriculture, it allows for new approaches to the control of pests with clear benefits for supplying food to an ever expanding world population. It also brings about opportunities to introduce qualitative changes into food products, such as nutritional benefits as well as improved storage and processing characteristics. Many biotechnological approaches are also viewed as ways to bring about reductions in the use of pesticide control agents with consequent environmental benefits. Safety is of paramount importance and the concerns of both scientists and the public must be addressed. Genetically Modified Crops: Assessing Safety sets out the key advances that have been made in agrobiochemical technology and the safety evaluation strategies that are being employed to ensure that the consumer is adequately protected.
