Abstract:

We try to explain the resistance of Poles (as well as Europeans) towards food biotechnology having in mind three factors: first we have to consider the influence of the media. The second factor influencing opinion of the society is trust in regulatory procedures. The last, third factor, is the role of knowledge in public perceptions. Information about potential benefits does improve consumer acceptance of genetically-modified food. Biotechnology is perceived to have substantial benefits, for example, in health care. Majority of the society is not satisfied with available information.
