Agricultural biotechnology uses modern tools like genetic engineering, tissue culture, and genome editing to improve crops, animals, and microorganisms for farming. It helps boost yield, resistance, and quality. Key Applications: GM Crops: Pest- and herbicide-resistant crops (e.g., Bt cotton). Improved Traits: Drought tolerance, better nutrition, faster growth. Disease Resistance: Plants engineered to fight infections. Biofertilizers & Biopesticides: Eco-friendly soil and pest solutions. Marker-Assisted Breeding: Faster, targeted crop improvement
