| dc.description | This publication aims to contribute to the knowledge of the socio-economic impacts of the adoption of non-transgenic biotechnologies (viz. biotechnologies other than genetic engineering). The first paper discusses some approaches used in impact assessment of innovations and presents a general overview of the literature about the impacts of non-transgenic biotechnologies. The second paper presents some studies on the extent of micropropagation application in Gabon, Mali, Nigeria , Uganda and Zimbabwe. The third paper reports the findings of two field studies carried out with an anthropological approach in Uganda and Zimbabwe, aimed at better understanding the process of adoption of micropropagated planting materials and its impacts on livelihoods. | |
