Extractions: The development of genetic engineering or biotechnology attracts support from many quarters. Some are dazzled by the prospects of increased power and profit from the colonisation and industrialisation of evolution's basic building block, the genetic code. Others have less selfish aspirations. Humanistic aspirations to combat crippling physical and mental disorders, for example, lead many sections of the general public to support genetic engineering. So too do hopes that new strains of superproductive plants could put an end to the scourge of world hunger. Many environmentalists are also keen supporters of biotechnology. In 1983, environmental organisations such as the Countryside Commission, World Wildlife Fund and the then Nature Conservancy Council endorsed The Conservation and Development Programme for the UK , which celebrated biotechnology as a 'sunrise industry' and one of 'the environment's growth poles'. In Save the Earth , edited by Jonathon Porritt, Peter Raven, a member of the US National Science Board, claims that 'genetic engineering will widen the reach of our great-grandchildren, enabling them to put together altered kinds of organisms that will be productive indefinitely under the conditions in which they are grown'.

Extractions: The Future of Agriculture on the Great Plains By William Patrie. Now many commodities produced in the Great Plains are at great risk of being replaced by commodities produced in other parts of the world where land and labor is cheaper and the land is newer and requires less inputs. Others at this conference can report on the commodity price misery being experienced on the Great Plains. I won't, other than to say that it is a necessary time of sadness, for farm families do not want to let go of their position in food chain as commodity producers. It is like dying. But something new is happening. Like crocuses through the snow of Easter, new businesses are forming. They are businesses formed by farmers who ask financially strapped neighbors to invest money and commit quality products. Soybeans are now being sold as oil, durum wheat as pasta, hard red spring wheat as partially baked frozen bread, corn as sweeteners, alfalfa to milk and cheese, hogs as hams, and cattle as dinning entertainment The Future of Agriculture In North Dakota North Dakota Farmers from All Things Considered, (Real Audio) Thursday, July 5, 2001. Reporter Clay Scott travels to rural western North Dakota, a region that demographers predict will lost up to a third of its population over the next two decades. But as many farmers and ranchers continue to leave the area, some are embracing new exotic crops and animals as a way to continue to live off the land in a place they love. (7:00) Curt Stofferahn was interviewed for this report on All Things Considered.

Extractions: Introduction At noon on Jan. 19, 1993, William Jefferson Clinton was sworn in as the 42nd President of the U.S. A few hours later, the King County Health Department in Washington State issued the first warning linking consumption of undercooked hamburgers with an outbreak of E. coli O157:H7, sometimes known as hamburger disease. What came to be known as the Jack-in-the-Box outbreak eventually killed four young children and sickened over 700. These two events, more than any other, have dramatically changed the public discussion of food safety in North America, and certainly underscores the importance of industry-led efforts to manage food safety risks. The Jack-in-the-Box outbreak had all the elements of a dramatic story which catapulted it to the top of the public agenda at least in the U.S. Children were involved; the risk was relatively unknown and unfamiliar; and a sense of outrage developed in response to the inadequacy of the government inspection system and the identifiable target in Foodmaker Inc. (for a full accounting, see Powell et al., 1997). E. coli O157:H7 became the focus of Congressional debates on regulatory reform, tragic tales from bereaved parents, and the subject of inestigative journalism. More importantly, in the wake of Jack-in-the-Box, stories about microbial food safety began appearing more frequently and more prominently in American media (fig. 1).
Extractions: (Updated 30 July 2001) National Regulatory System GMO Policy Commercial release of GM crops in Western Australia The GM Canola Technical Working Group ... Communication Genetically modified (GM) crops are gradually being introduced into farming systems throughout the world - to date, mostly in the USA, Canada, and some countries of South America. In 2000, it is estimated that 46 million hectares of genetically modified crops were grown, mainly maize, cotton, soybeans and canola. The introduction of GM crops in Australia and the labelling of food products containing GMOs, has recently become a focus of public attention. In 1999 the Federal Government established two new agencies to ensure Australia realises any of the potential gains that may be offered by biotechnology. These are Biotechnology Australia (BA) and the Office of the Gene Technology Regulator (OGTR) BA reports to a Council of five Commonwealth Ministers and operate from within the Department of Industry Science and Resources. The agency has been working closely with other government departments to: develop a national strategy for biotechnology
