  • NGO Perspectives on the Social and Ethical Dimensions of Plant Genome- Editing
    NGO perspectives on the social and ethical dimensions of plant genome- editing Richard Helliwell, Sarah Hartley, Warren Pearce Abstract Plant genome editing has the potential to become another chapter in the intractable debate that has dogged agricultural biotechnology. In 2016, 107 Nobel Laureates accused Greenpeace of emotional and dogmatic campaigning against agricultural biotechnology and called for governments to defy such campaigning. The Laureates invoke the authority of science to argue that Greenpeace is putting lives at risk by opposing agricultural biotechnology and Golden Rice and is notable in framing Greenpeace as unethical and its views as marginal. This paper examines environmental, food and farming NGOs’ social and ethical concerns about genome editing, situating these concerns in comparison to alternative ethical assessments provided by the Nuffield Council on Bioethics, a key actor in this policy debate. In doing so, we show that participant NGOs and the Nuffield Council on Bioethics share considerable concerns about the social and ethical implications of genome editing. These concerns include choices over problem/solution framing and broader terminology, implications of regulatory and research choices on consumer choice and relations of power. However, GM-engaged NGOs and the Nuffield Council on Bioethics diverge on one important area: the NGOs seek to challenge the existing order and broaden the scope of debate to include deeply political questions regarding agricultural and technological choices. This distinction between the ethical positions means that NGOs provide valuable ethical insight and a useful lens to open up debate and discussion on the role of emerging technologies, such as genome editing, and the future of agriculture and food sovereignty.

  • Precision Agriculture: Using Technology to Increase Northern Bobwhite Populations and Farm Revenue
    May 2016 WSFNR - 16 - 07 Pub. No. XXX Precision Agriculture: Using Technology to Increase Northern Bobwhite Populations and Farm Revenue Mark D. McConnell Wildlife Outreach Specialist [email protected]; (706) 542-3277 In a landscape dominated by tall corn and lush soybeans it’s not always easy to point out the most productive land from the least. In fact, field productivity (i.e., crop yield) is highly variable for many of reasons. It is usually easiest to see near field edges. We’ve all seen shorter crops near a tree line or next to a turn row. It’s a no brainer that the yield is often lower in these areas. But what’s not so obvious is how much lower. Any farmer worth his salt can tell you where the best and worst areas of his fields are but it takes a little help from technology to put a number on it and assign an economic value. Precision agriculture technology can put a dollar sign on how much revenue is lost on marginal farmland and show how profitability varies spatially. Researchers at Mississippi State University (MSU) have gone a step further and used this technology to simultaneously increase farm revenue and bobwhite populations through informed conservation practice delivery. Historically, northern bobwhites (Figure 1) and agriculture went hand in hand. Fields were smaller, farmers left the margins near tree lines idle, there were more weeds and more bugs and quail thrived in this utopian, early successional environment. We’ve all heard an ‘old timer’ talk about hunting hedgerows and field edges around agriculture fields.

Gremmen Inaugural lecture upon taking up the position of Personal Professor of Ethics in Life Sciences at Wageningen University & Research on 20 April 2017 Ethics of livestock farming? Who cares? Prof. dr. H.G.J. Gremmen Inaugural lecture upon taking up the position of Personal Professor of Ethics in Life Sciences at Wageningen University & Research on 20 April 2017 doi http://dx.doi.org/10.18174/417430 isbn 978-94-6343-602-1 Ethics of livestock farming? Who cares? Introduction Esteemed Rector Magnificus, dear colleagues, family and friends, ladies and gentlemen. The number of animals in The Netherlands has grown to an all-time high. Tens of millions of animals play an important role in different activities as pets, in sports, as hobby and companion animals, but they are also used in clinical trials and tests, especially in agriculture (Eijsackers and Scholten, 2011). However, Dutch society is changing dramatically in relation to societal ideas about agricultural production (LNV, 2007; Ankersmit, 2010), especially about genetic modification and the use of animals (Bruijnis et al., 2015). To mention only a few trends that will reduce animal numbers in the long run: a ban on wild circus animals, a ban on mink (six million animals each year), a restriction on keeping certain species as pets (‘positieflijst 2017’), and a 20% reduction in dairy cows. Besides their role in society, animals are also found in nature areas, where humans are causing the sixth global mass extinction of wild animals. A future without the need to care for large and medium sized animals seems to lie ahead.

  • Precision Agriculture and the Future of Farming in Europe
    Precision agriculture and the future of farming in Europe Scientific Foresight Study Precision agriculture and the future of farming in Europe Scientific Foresight Study IP/G/STOA/FWC/2013-1/Lot 7/SC5 December 2016 Abstract Precision agriculture (PA) or precision farming, is a modern farming management concept using digital techniques to monitor and optimise agricultural production processes. Rather than applying the same amount of fertilisers over an entire agricultural field, or feeding a large animal population with equal amounts of feed, PA will measure variations in conditions within a field and adapt its fertilising or harvesting strategy accordingly. Likewise, it will assess the needs and conditions of individual animals in larger herds and optimise feeding on a per-animal basis. PA methods promise to increase the quantity and quality of agricultural output while using less input (water, energy, fertilisers, pesticides, etc.). The aim is to save costs, reduce environmental impact and produce more and better food. The methods of PA rely mainly upon a combination of new sensor technologies, satellite navigation and positioning technology, and the Internet of Things. PA has been making its way into farms across Europe and is increasingly assisting farmers in their work. This study intends to inform Members of the European Parliament about the current state-of- the-art, possible developments for the future, societal concerns and opportunities, and policy options for European policy-makers to consider. In its first part, the study presents an overview of key aspects of European agriculture and PA's state-of-the-art. In the second part, it presents possible scenarios for future developments of PA developed in the context of a foresight exercise, followed by four main conclusions drawn from the analysis of these scenarios.
