Continuing through the twenty-first century, technology is expanding and to all aspects of life for the purpose of fixing worldwide problems to making our life’s much easier. In the past few years, a new branch of technology has opened up, called Biotechnology. Biotechnology combines agriculture and science to improve crops. Methods such as Genetics are used to modify crops and animals. Those in the Biotechnology work field say that this new devolvement in science may in the future change agriculture.
So what is the purpose of Biotechnology? It’s to solve nationwide as well as worldwide agriculture problems to make farming more efficient and profitable. Farmers each year lose millions to crop damage from droughts, pest, and poor soil conditions. Biotechnology is not just to make farmers money, but to also put an end to hunger and slow down the growth of disease spread
In my opinion, Biotechnology will be very useful in the future. Already, previous problems that have encountered with agriculture have dramatically dropped and will continue to do so as more and more developments are created. Hunger is now on the decline as crops are grown almost anywhere. Profit loss for farmers is also declining as well. So in conclusion, Biotechnology can and will change the farming industry. Our planet is becoming more and more populated everyday. It’s up to those work in the Biotechnology field to ensure that there will be enough food to go around and that no one will ever starve of hunger.
Along with other major developments in science, there is much controversy that follows biotechnology. Biotechnology is completely safe. Before a product can be put on the store shelf, it first must past extensive test by the Food and Drug Administration. The FDA will then allow
