Abstract
Food security is a global issue. The main challenge to global agricultural economics and policy is the need to meet the food demands of the world’s growing population. The growth of the world’s population requires innovative solutions to issues in food security. Genetic engineering is said to provide a number of possible solutions for improving nutrition, increasing yield and enhancing crop resilience. On the other hand, the rapid development of agricultural biotechnology has raised debates on risks associated with genetically modified organisms. New techniques of genome editing seem to provide ample means to overcome limitations inherent in conventional plant breeding, but it is obvious that their industrial applicability depends on regulatory environment and political decision making. Close interaction between science, policy and law is required to realize the potential of modern biotechnology to contribute to food security, wealth and sustainable development.
