Food Biotechnology

Food biotechnology is the utilization of scientific techniques and technologies to enhance the production, processing, and quality of food products. It encompasses a wide range of research areas and applications. Scientists employ biotechnology tools to create crops that can withstand environmental stresses like drought and disease, and also to develop crops that offer improved nutrition to vulnerable populations.

However, the ethical, social, and environmental implications of food biotechnology, especially regarding genetically modified (GM) crops and the use of agrochemicals, must be carefully examined to understand their potential impacts.
