Wouldn’t you like to leave your food in the refrigerator for a week and come back and it’s still the same as you left it? A GMO is the result of a laboratory process where genes from the DNA of one species are extracted and artificially forced into the genes of an unrelated plant or animal. GMOs are very beneficial to the world because of its resistance to insects, environmental protection, and more nutritious foods. Bt cotton is the only GM crop authorised to be grown in India and China. Bt crops are supposed to be grown with refuges of non-GM crops and plants to reduce the likelihood of the targeted pests developing resistance. To deal with the problem of resistant pests, one experiment in the US used releases of pests sterilised using

This corresponds to about a quarter of all the pesticides sprayed in China in the mid-1990s. Additionally, the use of Bt cotton can substantially reduce the risk and incidence of pesticide poisonings to farmers. The quantity of insecticides used to control bollworm reduced by 96% from 5,748 metric tons of active ingredients in 2001 to as low as 222 metric tons of active ingredients in 2011.Herbicide tolerant crops have facilitated the continued expansion of conservation tillage, especially no-till cultivation system, in the USA. The adoption of conservation and no-till cultivation practices saved nearly 1 billion tons of soil per year.
Bigger yields to create more efficient use of land, less uses of herbicides and other pesticides. corn is also vulnerable to many pests and diseases, and corn requires a lot of nutrients. Finally, GM foods can create an essential sustainable way to feed the world. Some researchers say that gmos are bad for your body, community, farmers, and environment. Genetically engineered foods have not been shown to be safe to eat and may have unpredictable consequences.
I believe that GMOs are very important to the world because of its resistance to insects, environmental protection, and more nutritious foods. GMOs are very beneficial to the world because it could help decrease more illness and different foods that don't last longer would last
