"The All-Party Parliamentary Group on Science & Technology in Agriculture aims to promote debate among UK politicians and other stakeholders, not only to understand the role of science and technology in 21st century agriculture, but also to identify any policy, knowledge-based or regulatory barriers to its adoption.
Is agricultural science valued in the UK? Is our science policy and R&D framework fit for purpose? Is the transmission from laboratory to field working effectively, and focused on the right priorities? Does our regulatory framework foster or stifle innovation - is the balance right between productivity and environmental protection? What role do the media and NGOs play in influencing public attitudes towards new technology?"
The Group’s activities are supported by a range food, farming and research organisations including: Agricultural Industries Confederation (AIC), agricultural biotechnology council (abc), Agriculture and Horticulture Development Board (AHDB), British Society of Plant Breeders (BSPB), Crop Protection Association (CPA), Maltsters Association of Great Britain (MAGB), National Association of British & Irish Millers (nabim) National Farmers Union (NFU) and National Institute of Agricultural Botany (NIAB).
