Resumen
Descripción
Conventional modern plant breeding has been recognized to be more beneficial
to farmers in high potential environments or those who could profitably modify
their environment to suit new cultivars, than to the poorest farmers who could
not afford to make the necessary modifications. As a consequence, low yields, crop
failures, malnutrition and poverty affect a large proportion of humanity.
