Study Notes

Genetic Modification and Sustainability

A potential environmental concern associated with GMOs is the unintended transfer of transgenic traits to wild relatives or non-target species.

Benefits of GMOs

A common benefit of genetically modified organisms (GMOs) is increased crop yields, which can help address global food demand and alleviate hunger.
GMOs contribute to food security by providing a more reliable source of nutrition, particularly in areas where crops are susceptible to disease or pests.

Economic Advantages

A potential economic advantage of genetically modified organisms (GMOs) is reduced pesticide and herbicide use, resulting in cost savings for farmers and a more sustainable agricultural practice.

Sustainable Agriculture

Genetically modified organisms (GMOs) contribute to sustainable agriculture by allowing farmers to grow crops that are more resilient to environmental stresses, reducing the need for resource-intensive farming practices.
