THE ECONOMICS OF NON-GMO SEGREGATION AND IDENTITY PRESERVATION

Abstract

We survey grain and soybean handlers and producers in the U.S. and EU to estimate costs of preserving the identities of GMO and non-GMO crops in marketing channels. We introduce our estimates into the IFPRI IMPACT model to simulate the effects of identity preservation on farm incomes and consumer well-being.Research and Development/Tech Change/Emerging Technologies,
