Question

How has biotechnology improved food production on india?

Answer 1

Biotechnology has both GM and Non-GM applications in agriculture. It has made the plant breeding process more precise and quick. The non-GM applications involve tools like Marker Assisted Selection, Tissue Culture, Mutation breeding, etc.  GM technology is being used in the world agriculture since 1996. It has applications like insect control, weed management, water use efficiency, nitrogen use efficiency, salinity tolerance etc which help us to grow our crops with less pesticides and under difficult abiotic stress conditions. There are other applications like edible oil crops with modified fatty acid profile, maize with modified nutrition content for the animal feed industry, rice with beta carotine content, etc which help in providing better quality food and feed for the humanity.  GM technology can help in conserving soil and environment through reduced tilling and pesticide use. .
