Genetically modified crops are crops with plants that have been genetically altered in order to increase the yield of the crop. For example, the plant may have been genetically altered to become bigger or more resistant to bugs.
not
Much of the corn and soybeans grown in Iowa are genetically modified (GM). Very little of any of the other crops have any significant modification done to them.
A lot of people are against genetically modified crops being grown because of potential negative health effects. The effects of altering crops genetically are also not known due to the process being relatively new.
they can cause diseases in crops and animals
Genetically modified(GM)organisms are those organisms whose DNA, or genetic material has been altered through modern biotechnology whereas GM foods are those from genetically engineered crops.
It is not likely that they will.
Crops which have been genetically modified to resist the effects of glyphosate, a commonly used herbicide (Roundup is the most common trade name).
One problem GMO crops pose for farmers who do not grow them is cross pollination of GMOs in non-GMO crops, especially those that are grown organically.
Some disadvantages of growing genetically modified crops include potential harm to non-target organisms, reduced biodiversity, development of resistance in pests and weeds, and uncertainty about long-term environmental and health effects.
No. It's just that any long term effects are unknown. So just avoid them for about 50 years.
