The global food supply was one of the concerns which led participants at the Environmental Summit in Rio de Janeiro in 1992 to agree upon the principle of sustainable development. Sustainable development requires more innovations. AgrEvo believes that plant biotechnology and plant gene technology are an integral part of the solution to this challenge. Gene technology is an additional method of control in plant cultivation. Gene technology allows individual, specific genes to be introduced into existing cultivation material, giving expression to new traits.
Gene technology makes it possible to make use of genes from virtually any living cell.
A Healthy Environment and Sound Nutrition for Everyone Five years from now, products and methods based on biotechnology and gene technology will be a fact of life in crop production. They will advance the goal of providing healthy food for everyone, in a healthy environment. On the basis of these new technologies, AgrEvo will provide agriculture with products which produce both high yields as well as sustainable production. Top Last update 30.06.99 Produced by MediaMan.
