technologies that are used to change the genetic makeup of cells and move the
genes from one species to another in order to produce new organisms. There
are techniques are used that are highly sophisticated manipulations genetic

Agriculture is the process of producing food, feed, fiber and many other
farming methods to produce enough food for humans and animal feeds.

are suited in different fields of agriculture for the betterment of the economy.
