“…Some studies claimed the presence of a U-shaped relationship between IPRs and levels of economic development 17 . Further, IPRs may increase the price of protected varieties and may limit accessibility to those protected varieties, particularly for small and marginal farmers 18,19 . However, the effectiveness of any policy intervention depends on the awareness and attitude of its stakeholders.…”

“…hybrid cotton, costs for GM cotton were exorbitant because the firm was the first and sole provider of the transgenic genes in India and imposed trait fees ($30 of the $45 charged for a 450 g of Bt. cotton seed)- as much as 1/3 of the retail price (Basu & Qaim, 2007; Arora & Bansal, 2012; Lalitha, 2004; Lalitha et al 2008; Murugkar et al 2007; Ramaswamy et al 2012a, 2012b; Rao, 2008). Other firms failed to provide viable competition; as a result, Monsanto exerted considerable sway on the pricing mechanism.…”

Indian Biotech opponents have attributed the increase of suicides to the monopolization of GM seeds, centering on patent control, application of terminator technology, marketing strategy, and increased production costs. The contentions of the biotech opponents, however, have been criticized for a lack of transparency in their modus operandi i.e. the use of methodology in their argumentation. The fact is, however, that with the intention of getting the attention of those capable of determining the future of GM cotton in India, opponents resorted to generating controversies. Therefore, this article will review and evaluate the multifaceted contentions of both opponents and defenders. Although the association between seed monopolization and farmer-suicide is debatable, we will show that there is a link between the economic factors associated with Bt. cultivation and farmer suicide. The underlying thesis of biotech opponents becomes all the more significant when analysed vis-à-vis the contention of the globalization critics that there has been a political and economic marginalization of the Indian farmers. Their accusation assumes significance in the context of a fragile democracy like India where market forces are accorded precedence over farmers’ needs until election time.

Varietas baru yang akan dilindungi harus memilki persyaratan kebaruan, unik, seragam dan stabil untik varietas yang diuji (Lalitha 2004;Gazaro 2006;Singh 2007;Santos et al 2012).…”
