Detailed explanation-1: -Farmers can use less spray pesticides when they plant GMO crops. This saves farmers money and reduces the amount of pesticides that end up on crops.
Detailed explanation-2: -GMO crops have significantly increased crop yields and simultaneously decreased pesticide use. By doing these two things combined, we are producing more food with less inputs. Decreased use of pesticides, means less pesticide production demand and also less energy use on the farmers’ end, too.
Detailed explanation-3: -The genetically modified plants can improve the yield which can meet the increasing demand of the population. They can be produced in a relatively short period of time with accuracy in traits. These crops are less dependent on pesticide and insecticides as they are genetically pest-resistant.
