How can crossbreeding help save a type of crop plant?
By combining it with its wild respective realtive to avoid acquiring diseases. or It can save a crop plant by altering its structure, so it can repel diseases
What are genetic engineers doing to improve health of crops?
Genetic engineers have devised ways to improve crop yields through eugenics, which refers to hereditary improvements. They have also developed methods to make crops more resistant to pests.

What are some risks of genetically engineering plants?
When plants, especially crop plants. are genetically engineered they are completely uniform in all characteristics. They have no genetic diversity. If the crop should be attacked by pests that it has no defense for, all will be affected and perhaps die, and the crop would be totally worthless.

What is genetic enginnering?
Genetic engineering is the process of altering an organism's genetic makeup by introducing specific DNA sequences into its genome. This technique allows scientists to modify traits or characteristics of an organism, such as increasing disease resistance or improving crop yield.

How are crops affectedby droughts and floods?
It derpends on the crop. Usually, too little water results in a failed crop. Too much water can lead to rot - which might affect all, or just part of a crop. Some crops such as rice actually thrive in flooded plains.
What does the crop harvesting industry consist of?
This industry encompasses establishments primarily engaged in mechanical harvesting, picking and combining of crops, and related activities, using machinery provided by the service firm.
Role of microorganisms in genetic engineering?
Add bacteia genes to crop plants can improve plant species :)
How did crop rotation increase crop yield?
If we grow a crop continuously in the same field for many years, it results in to various problems such as 1) deficiency of same types of nutrients and 2) build up of diseases and insect-pest. So crop rotation is used as a system of growing a sequence of different crops on the same ground so as to maintain or increase its fertility.
