To make them taste better and improve their freshness.

Plants that have genetic modifications tends to have better chance of surviving and the product tends to be better than the original. However, some people think genetic modifications are wrong because the food hasn't been tested fully and may harm humans since the food isn't natural; there is little evidence to prove this.

This technology can also help in developing crops that are more resilient to harsh environmental conditions, such as drought or extreme temperatures.


Why have scientists used genetic modification on fruits and vegatbles?

Scientists use genetic modification on fruits and vegetables to improve crop yields, enhance nutritional content, increase resistance to pests, diseases and environmental stress, and prolong shelf life. This technology can help address food security issues, reduce the need for harmful chemicals, and provide consumers with more nutritious and flavorful produce.


Why have scientist used genetic modification on fruits and vegtables?

There are many impacts resulting from genetic modification of fruits and vegetables. Presently science can do this by splicing in new genes or excising od genes. In the past farmers could only observe natural mutations and selectively breed for superior traits. In effect all modern food id genetically modified either by breeding or by diect manipulation of the genes.The impacts of natural or modern gene manipulation include:Resistance to diseaseResistance to pestsIncreased yieldReduced need for nutrients and waterIncreased resistance to frost etc.Improved shelf life when pickedImprove taste and appearance
