It is revealed that the gap in agricultural productivity between the rich and the poor has deepened in the last 20 years. Without reducing this gap it is not possible to solve global hunger. It is argued that unlike the Green Revolution that was designed to help small farmers in developing countries but was also suitable for large-scale farms, the Gene Revolution led by multinational companies will never reach small farmers.","PeriodicalId":393572,"journal":{"name":"GM food systems and their economic impact","volume":"23 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124971740","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
