Food Safety in Biotechnology

Since 1996, biotech crops have been promoted; however, some food activists have expressed concerns about whether biotech crops are as safe as conventional crops. People need to be better informed about food production as the use of agricultural biotechnology grows globally. Currently, biotech crops are favoured by more than 15 million growers in 29 countries. According to the United Nations, the global population will increase by one-third to 9.1 billion people by 2050. This will necessitate a 70% increase in agricultural output. Food biotechnology has shown to be a critical tool in addressing the challenge of increasing our food supply while remaining safe and economical.
