They are grown all across the USA and Canada and in many other parts of the world. At least 70% of processed foods in the grocery stores in the U.S. have GMO ingredients. Much of the meat in the U.S. has been grown using hormones that are genetically modified. Dairy cows are often given genetically modified hormones in the U.S. Some pharmaceutical drugs are made using genetic modification.
In a broad sense, a plant is genetically modifiedwhenever changes to the genes in the plant occur. This could occur naturally, through hybridization, or through genetic engineering.To be considered genetically engineered, a food must have been created using genetic engineering: the process of manually changing the genetic makeup of a plant in a lab, often by extracting a gene from one species and inserting it into an related species (such as a bacteria gene being inserted into corn).The terms genetically modified and genetically engineered are often used interchangeably to refer to genetic engineering.
GMOs are not caused, but produced. GMO is the abbreviation for Genetically Modified Organism. Basically, the process of genetic engineering removes a section of DNA from one organism, often a bacteria or virus, and inserts it into another organism, often a crop like corn or soybeans. The majority of genetically modified crops have been modified to withstand direct spraying of synthetic weed killers, or to produce a substance within the plant itself that kills insects when insects feed on the plant. The use of this technology is controversial, but to answer your question directly, many would say the "cause" is economical for the producers of the GMOs, since when they modify a crop genetically, the modified plants are considered unique organisms that can be (and are) patentable.
[1] Non-genetically modified organism products can easily be contaminated by air and by seed. The gmo contamination can show up in areas that aren't using gmo. And it has shown up in uncultivated areas; and in cultivated areas such as backyard gardens, and conventional and organic farms. [2] Despite the previous statements, that it's genetically modified organism free is what's being said thus far about Sunrise products.

They are genetically modified to taste better.

Genetically modified organisms are living things that have had their DNA altered in some way using genetic engineering.http://www.livescience.com/40895-gmo-facts.html
organic Cotton is grown without using pesticides from plants which are not genetically modified
Pure Ascorbic Acid which is generally used for food supplements and in foods is generally NOT from a natural source. It is synthetised by a chemical reaction, sometimes also by using genetically modified organisms.
By use of genetic engineering techniques, an organism may be able to be genetically modified. Various organisms ranging from bacteria to food products have been genetically modified in the society.
Genetically modified foods are actually quite common today. They are created by farmers using selective cross breeding and by scientists manipulating the food's genetic code. Common examples of this type of food are seedless fruits.
GMO's = Genetically Modified Organisms. Which means that in a organism the natural genetic make up is altered in a way that is not natural for the organism using genetic engineering. In the GMO's the alteration are occurred for some noble purposes like the desired product from the organism is increased or the survivability strain is increased. The GMO's goes with plant and animals also. Like the GMO eggplant which is resistant to a specific insect.
Three foods that have been genetically engineered are corn, soy, and canola. It is possible that some fruits and vegetables have been genetically engineered using a slightly different method than ones we hear about.
comfort food is simply prepared and assocciated with the sense of home or contentment. organic food refers to crops or livestocks that are grown on the farm without application of synthetic fetilizers or pesticides and without using genetically modified organisms.
Nitrogen is an essential nutrients that facilitate plant growth thus using the genetically modified bacteria can help much in plant production which in turn can support the ecological balance
A genetically modified organism (GMO) or genetically engineered organism (GEO) is an organism whose genetic material has been altered using genetic engineering techniques. These techniques, generally known as recombinant DNA technology, use DNA molecules from different sources, which are combined into one molecule to create a new set of genes. This DNA is then transferred into an organism, giving it modified or novel genes. Transgenic organisms, a subset of GMOs, are organisms which have inserted DNA that originated in a different species
