Biofortification enhances the nutritional value of crop plants through biotechnological methods, potentially combating malnutrition.

Precision agriculture employs biotechnologies such as GPS, sensors, and big data to optimize field-level management regarding crop farming.

GMOs involve altering the genetic makeup of an organism to express a desired trait. Benefits include increased yield, disease resistance, and reduced need for pesticides.

CRISPR-Cas9 allows for precise editing of DNA, offering the potential for targeted gene alterations in plants to improve traits such as drought tolerance and nutrient use efficiency.

Using biotechnology to convert agricultural waste into biofuels can reduce waste and provide a renewable energy source, thereby decreasing dependency on fossil fuels.

Biotechnology can be used to engineer soil microbes that improve soil fertility and plant growth, ultimately leading to increased crop productivity.

Genetically engineering crops for drought resistance can improve crop survival and yields in arid regions, enhancing food security and reducing water use.

This method uses natural predators or parasites to control pest populations, reducing reliance on chemical pesticides and promoting environmental sustainability.

Synthetic biology involves designing and creating new biological parts or systems or re-designing existing ones to have new functions, which can lead to innovative solutions in plant and animal production.
