    Abstract

    This study reports recent developments in the application of biotechnology in agriculture in order to assess whether current food safety evaluations strategies are adequate in view of these new and presumably more far reaching developments. Trends are observed that may require additional regulatory measures by the government. Finally, specific new developments in gene technology may be the subject of a public debate in order to decide whether these developments are socially acceptable or not.
