Globalization: The globalization of all aspects of the food
and fiber system is having a sudden and surprising impact on
American agriculture. Profound changes are seen worldwide
from competitive markets around the world, from diseases
not limited to national boundaries, to population growth and
evolving diets. These changes have led to a dramatically new
trade environment, threats of exotic diseases and pests to
domestic production, and international controversies over the
use of biotechnology. To remain competitive, the food and
agriculture sector needs to take these developments into
consideration.
Information Access and Communication: The explosion of
information technology, the worldwide use of the Internet,
and the major advancements of cyberspace communications
are changing the way private industry, government, and
individuals conduct daily business. Vast amounts of
information soon will be available in “real time,” more
people from around the world will be able to retrieve the
information, and advanced computer software will make the
information more useful and meaningful. Advancements in
communication technology offer benefits and opportunities
for everyone involved in the American food and agriculture
sector.
Workforce: A very important employment issue is the need
to recruit and retain a highly skilled and technically well
trained Federal workforce. The relatively low U.S.
unemployment rate makes recruitment highly
competitive. This competitive environment is expected to
require more employer emphasis on recruitment, retention,
student employment, upward mobility, and training/retraining
programs. The public sector will need to recruit a diversity of
people and to maintain a highly qualified and technically
competent workforce. Expanding job opportunities for
women and minorities in science and engineering will help to
tap the Nation’s human potential.
Technology: Advances in technology — such as
bioengineering, precision agriculture, remote sensing, and
decision modeling — can enable agricultural production to
enhance nutrition, protect the environment, and continue to
make the food supply safe. Biotechnology offers great
promise for increasing production efficiency, improving food
quality, and enhancing nutritional value. However, concerns
about genetically modified organisms (GMO) have had a
marked impact on international exports of affected
commodities, and prompted questions about the potential
benefits and risks. Precision agriculture, remote sensing, and
decision modeling will increase production efficiency and
mitigate adverse environmental impacts on agriculture.
Public concern about food safety has led to new rapid
detection technologies that, when fully implemented, will
make the food supply increasingly safer.

O futuro da humanidade será cada vez mais movido
pelo uso intensivo de conhecimento, quer na atividade produtiva
quer em atividades cotidianas, como entretenimento e convívio.
Criar mecanismos capazes de não apenas estimular a
produção como também sua ampla difusão é tarefa para todos,
devendo ocupar opção preferencial na agenda das empresas
contemporâneas.
Compartilhar conhecimentos é um fato social tão
relevante quanto o próprio ato de criação de novos
conhecimentos, principalmente se levarmos em conta que boa
parte da produção destes resulta da combinação de saberes já
existentes e utilizados parcialmente ou com outros fins.

Na linha 12, subentende-se do desenvolvimento das idéias no texto que a expressão “com outros fins” estabelece um paralelo com “parcialmente” porque as duas expressões modificam a ação de utilizar.
