Resumo: Over the past few decades, the production of transgenic food has generated debates around advances in agricultural biotechnology and their social, political, economic, and environmental concerns in the world, and especially in Brazil, a country with a notable prominence for agribusiness. As part of this debate, this study aimed to understand, through the application of online questionnaires to the 318 respondents, the acceptance or rejection of consumers regarding the potential use of genetically modified sweet orange fruit for human consumption and the perspectives for the future release of production at the commercial level. It was observed that there is high acceptance of the consumption of transgenic oranges, but these products will have resistance from part of the population and import markets for possible production and commercialization. However, it was observed that there is a high perspective of the population for transgenics to become an important alternative in the control of the main citrus diseases that drastically affect the productivity of this sector.

Como parte de este debate, este estudio tuvo como objetivo comprender, a través de la aplicación de cuestionarios en línea a los 318 encuestados, la aceptación o rechazo de los consumidores con respecto al uso potencial de la naranja dulce modificada genéticamente para el consumo humano y las perspectivas para el futuro lanzamiento de producción a nivel comercial. Se observó que existe una alta aceptación del consumo de naranjas transgénicas, pero estos productos tendrán resistencia por parte de la población y los mercados de importación para una posible producción y comercialización. Sin embargo, se observó que existe una alta perspectiva de la población para que los transgénicos se conviertan en una alternativa importante en el control de las principales enfermedades de los cítricos que afectan drásticamente la productividad de este sector.No decorrer das últimas décadas, a produção de alimentos transgênicos tem gerado debates em torno dos avanços das biotecnologias na agricultura e seus impactos sociais, políticos, econômicos e ambientais em todo o mundo, e principalmente no Brasil, país de notório destaque para o agronegócio. Como parte deste debate, o presente trabalho teve como objetivo compreender, através da aplicação de questionários on-line aos 318 entrevistados, a aceitação ou rejeição dos consumidores quanto ao potencial uso de frutos de laranjeiras doces geneticamente modificadas para o consumo humano e as perspectivas para a futura liberação da produção a nível comercial. Observou-se que há alta aceitação do consumo de laranjas transgênicas, porém estes produtos terão resistência por parte da população e de mercados importadores para uma possível produção e comercialização. Entretanto, observou-se que há alta perspectiva da população para que a transgenia se torne uma importante alternativa no controle das principais doenças dos citros que afetam drasticamente a produtividade deste setor.Research, Society and Development2021-12-01info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/article/view/2267910.33448/rsd-v10i15.22679Research, Society and Development; Vol. 10 No. 15; e468101522679Research, Society and Development; Vol. 10 Núm. 15; e468101522679Research, Society and Development; v. 10 n. 15; e4681015226792525-3409reponame:Research, Society and Developmentinstname:Universidade Federal de Itajubá (UNIFEI)instacron:UNIFEIporhttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/article/view/22679/20506Copyright (c) 2021 Matheus Luís Docema; Caio Morais de Alcântara Barbosa; André Luiz Fadelhttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessDocema, Matheus LuísBarbosa, Caio Morais de AlcântaraFadel, André Luiz2021-12-06T10:13:53Zoai:ojs.pkp.sfu.ca:article/22679Revistahttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/indexPUBhttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/oairsd.articles@gmail.com2525-34092525-3409opendoar:2024-01-17T09:41:46.789622Research, Society and Development - Universidade Federal de Itajubá (UNIFEI)false
