What stands in the way of the widespread and careful adoption of 'gene-edited' crop technology is an Intellectual Property Rights regime that seeks to create private monopolies for such technologies. If gene-editing is largely corporate driven, it seeks to maximise profits, and that too in the short run. That is why corporations make major investments for herbicide-tolerant and pest-resistant traits. Such properties have only a short window, as soon enough, pests and weeds will evolve to overcome such resistance. This suits the corporations. The National Farmers Commission pointed out that priority must be given in gene-editing to the incorporation of traits that can help impart resistance to drought, salinity and other stresses.
