Abstract
India
is
considering
approving
genetically
modified
(GM)
rice
, but it
fears
losing
rice
exports
to
sensitive
countries
with
import
regulations
on
GM
food
, and
may
wait
for
China
to
lead
the
way
.
Using
a
multiregion
,
computable
general
equilibrium
(CGE)
model
,
we
simulate
the
economic
effects
of
introducing
GM
rice
in
India
with or
without
China
in the
presence
of
labeling
and
import
approval
regulations
of
GM
food
in
GM
sensitive
importing
countries
.
We
find
that the
welfare
gains
with
GM
rice
in
India
would
largely
exceed
any
potential
export
loss
, and that the
segregation
of
non-GM
rice
could
help
reduce
these
minor
losses
.
We
also
find
no
significant
first
mover
advantage
for
India
or
China
on
GM
rice
. The
opportunity
cost
of
segregation
of
non-GM
rice
is
much
larger
for
sensitive
importers
than for
India
, which
suggests
that these
importers
would have the
incentive
to
pay
for the
cost
of
segregation
.
