Consequences des technologies nouvelles dans le secteur des semences

Abstract

New biological technologies already have and will have in the future a significant impact in the agrobusiness channels. They will not, however, represent a qualitative jump. They will simply stand in a very good position among the tools that various disciplines in research and technology that work for these channels use and will use. They will not fundamentally alter their present approaches. The impact on agriculture may not be visible to the farmers, as they will operate either upstream or downstream from the farm. Inputs will continue evolving as in the past. Downstream, demand is likely to be influenced by the requirements, demand is likely to be influenced by the requirements from the users of farm products, as a fallout from the new technologies that these will adopt. This, and the tendency of companies to try and follow their industrial property rights farther than this was usual up to the present time, is likely to lead to an increased domination of the markets by operators from upstream and downstream, at the expense of the farmers.
