Commentary:
Genetic engineering in agriculture is used to improve crop yield and make plants more resistant to pests and diseases. This is important for keeping up with food demand as the population grows. It can also reduce the need for pesticides, which can be better for the environment. However, there are still concerns about long term health effects and environmental impact. Some people are also worried about large companies controlling genetically modified seeds. Even with the controversy, GMOs are a big part of modern agriculture and are not going away anytime soon.
