Agricultural Biotechnology - the Farm of the Future |
| Agricultural Biotechnology is the term generally used to describe the use of Biotechnology to alter plants to improve their characteristics, such as giving them resistance to a new, safer, and more effective herbicide, resistance to insects, or to fungal or bacterial diseases. These plants are usually termed transgenic - that is containing genes from another organism (which can also be a plant).
