Detailed explanation-1: -GMO crops also allow for fewer pesticide applications, which is a positive for the environment. That said, more long-term human research is necessary. The main concerns around GMOs involve allergies, cancer, and environmental issues-all of which may affect the consumer.

Detailed explanation-2: -Yet GMOs pose an array of concerns. Mixing up plant genes can threaten allergy sufferers – like when Brazil nuts were crossed with soybeans. GMOs increase resistance to antibiotics, making medicines less effective. Fears have been raised over possible links to cancer, reproductive malfunction, digestive disorders.

Detailed explanation-3: -Genetic modification produces genetically modified animals, plants and organisms. If they are introduced into the environment they can affect biodiversity. For example, existing species can be overrun by more dominant new species. These and other potential effects are considered during the licensing procedure.

Detailed explanation-4: -Tastier food. Disease-and drought-resistant plants that require fewer environmental resources (such as water and fertilizer) Less use of pesticides. Increased supply of food with reduced cost and longer shelf life.
