Notas do Editor
- MODERATOR – It’s a pleasure to welcome you today to a presentation on the Global Status of Commercialized Biotech Crops in 2010 -- a year which marks the 15 th anniversary of the first commercial plantings. We have with us today Dr. Clive James, chair and founder of ISAAA and the report’s author, and Dr. Anderson Galvao Gomes, Director of Brazilian-based Celeres and an ISAAA board member and contributor to the report. This year, the ISAAA report is being launched from Sao Paulo. Brazil is widely considered the engine of economic growth in Latin America and that also holds true with respect to biotech crop adoption. In 2010, Brazilian farmers increased their biotech crop plantings by 4 million hectares – more than any other country in the world.
- Dr. James – In 2010 the number of countries planting biotech crops soared from 25 to 29. It is worth noting that 19 were developing countries compared with 10 industrialized countries. About 59 percent of the world’s population now live in the 29 countries which are planting biotech crops commercially. Three new countries planted biotech crops for the first time in 2010 and one country resumed plantings. New planters included Pakistan and Myanmar, which planted Bt cotton for the first time. Sweden, the first Scandinavian country to plant biotech crops, planted the “Amflora” potato with high-quality starch for industrial production and animal feed. Germany, also planted Amflora and re-joined the seven European countries planting biotech crops in 2010. As the trajectory of the red line on the chart illustrates, developing countries, which planted 48 percent of global biotech crops in 2010, are on track to soon overtake industrialized nations in total hectares of biotech crops planted –the industrial countries are represented by the blue line. We expect this cross-over to occur before 2015. Indeed, in 2010 developing countries increased biotech crop plantings at a much higher rate of 17 percent or 10.3 million hectares, compared to only 5 percent or 3.8 million hectares in industrialized countries.
- Dr. James – Another milestone reached in 2010 was that, for the first time, the top ten biotech crop countries all grew more than 1 million hectares each. Countries highlighted in this slide include the five principal developing countries from all three continents growing biotech crops – they are Brazil, Argentina, India, China and South Africa. With a combined population of 2.7 billion people – or 40 percent of the global population – these five countries planted 63 million hectares of biotech crops in 2010, equivalent to 43 percent of the global total – this provides a very stable base and foundation for further growth. These five nations – particularly China, Brazil and India – are driving biotech crop adoption in the developing world by creating strong political will and investing substantial new research and development funding for biotech crops in both the public and private sectors. It is important to note that biotech crops now have a well-established foothold in each of the three continents of the South.
