HOPE THIS HELPS !!!
Some Countries have developed genetically modified crops through Bio-Technology.
It involves the use of living organisms and bio-processes in engineering, technology, medicine etc. It also covers genetic engineering,cell and tissue,culture technologies, manufacture of drugs,environmental management etc.
In this,the higher yield is produced by introducing the foreign genes from different species.
Large production from the seeds
Well enriched seeds
Reduce cost on Agriculture
High Profit
Better Colour
Nutritional Flavour
Reduce disease in plants
