Science近期發(fā)表的一篇名為《21世紀農業(yè)的根本性再思考》的評論文章指出,,“人們需要超越反對農業(yè)生物技術的普遍偏見,建立一個科學的管理框架”,。
作者N.V. Fedoroff呼吁在考慮已有證據和經驗的基礎上對現有的管理框架進行認真的再評估,。這將使管理更加簡單并且不會對完整的安全評估造成影響。目前的限制性監(jiān)管制度往往對公共部門造成一定限制,使他們難以利用各種分子學方法為農民改良作物,。
作者在結論部分稱:“如果打算重新啟動饑餓消除進程,,我們就必須加強并確立目前已經發(fā)展的一些創(chuàng)新辦法,并立即執(zhí)行,。”(生物谷Bioon.com)

Population growth, arable land and fresh water limits, and climate change have profound implications for the ability of agriculture to meet this century's demands for food, feed, fiber, and fuel while reducing the environmental impact of their production. Success depends on the acceptance and use of contemporary molecular techniques, as well as the increasing development of farming systems that use saline water and integrate nutrient flows.
