Abstract:
The production of genetically modified crops for commercial release and agriculture resulting in a number of changes in the life style of an individual and farmers particularly. Scientists who analyze the impact of agricultural biotechnology from the socio-legal perspective; looked the tall claim of genetic engineering with suspicion. They claim alterations can change the organism's metabolism, growth rate, and/or may have down side effect on external environmental factors. This research paper tries to explore and examine the concerns raised from the socio-legal perspective as society should have minimum scientific knowledge in reference to use of GMOs and its derivatives. It is concluded with the finding that a reasonable policy with regard to their use by the farmers and others stake holders need to be prepared.
