Name 3 way in which GMO's are used in agriculture crops

GM crops can be described as the variety of crop plants which have been modified through the recombinant DNA technology.

GMO'S are used in agricultural crops to :

1) Increase the amount of nutrients in a crop plant: As the population of humans is rising enormously, we need more food to survive on. The production of GM crops allows more food with better nutrition quality to be produced in a shorter time. For example, Golden rice is a GM crop which has increased levels of Vitamin A in it to meet the needs of Vitamin A in under-developed countries.

2) Produce Disease Resistant Crops: GM crops are a way to produce disease-resistant crops which will be disease-free and hence help in raising the economy. For example, orange trees are being produced by this method which is resistant to citrus greening disease.

3) Pest Resistant crops: Growing pests resistant plants are one of the major concerns of recombinant crops as a wide variety of pests infect the natural plants. For example, BT cotton is being produced which is resistant to the combat bollworm pest.
