- W41246804 abstract "Biotechnology is internationally believed to be thenext revolutionary scientific endeavour in thehistoryofhumanity.Researchers suggest that the same way that steam power and the railway andmore recently information and communication technologies have revolutionized society,biotechnology will change the way we live and we think about living organisms and society (Freeman and Soete, 1997). Biotechnology as a researchdomain opensup the way for new applications in healthcare, agriculture, foodproduction,environmental protection, development ofmaterials and chemicals, and new scientific discoveries. The new technologies regenerate old industries and create new businesses offering skilled jobs that sustain knowledge-based economies and produce economic growth. The economic prospects led anumber of countries to develop relevant policies and provide incentives for the promotion of research, development and innovation and as a consequence a number of studies have been undertaken monitoring andassessing the performance of biotechnology in those countries (European Commission, 2003; Reiss, and Dominguez-Lacasa, 2005). The South African government supports biotechnologyandencourageshomegrownresearch. A recent report identifies that SouthAfrica exerts leadershipandprovides theexample for theadoption and acceptance of biotech crops in the African continent and globally (James, 2007). South Africa is classified as the only country in theAfrican continent and one of the 14 biotech megacountries in theworld.Countries are classified as biotech mega-countries when they grow 50,000 hectares, or more, of biotech crop. Furthermore, a multi-criteria survey identified that an approving climate of opinionprevails towards biotechnology in the country (Pouris, 2003b). Moreover the recently published “Ten Year Plan” of the Department of Science and TechnoResearch Section Biotechnology Research in South Africa: A Benchmarking Exercise" @default.
