ISAAA Releases Video on Biotech Crops Adoption in China, India, and the Philippines
January 22, 2014| |
A 10- minute video based on the project research Adoption and Uptake Pathways of GM/Biotech Crops by Small-scale, Resource-poor Asian Farmers in China, India, and the Philippines consolidates the farmer narratives from the three countries on adoption and uptake pathways of biotech crops. The video, titled Cadres of Change: Transforming Biotech Farmers in China, India, and the Philippines provides a ‘human face' to the collaborative research as documented by actual farmers engaged in biotech crop farming. Through farmers' testimonials, it also provided concrete evidence of the changes biotech crops have brought to farmers' lives.
