Genetically Modified Organisms (GMOs)
Genetically Modified Organisms (GMOs)
Genetically Modified Organisms (GMOs) are organisms whose genetic material has been altered using biotechnology to express desirable traits. In agriculture, GMOs play a pivotal role in enhancing crop yield, pest resistance, and tolerance to environmental stresses. For instance, Bt crops have been engineered to produce a bacterial toxin that protects against pests. GMOs can reduce the need for chemical pesticides and improve food security. Despite their benefits, GMOs are a subject of ethical and environmental debate. Regulations and extensive testing are required to ensure their safety and sustainability. Overall, GMOs hold significant potential in addressing global agricultural challenges.
