agricultural-biotech
Agricultural biotechnology applies molecular biology, genetics, and genomic tools to develop improved crop varieties and farming practices through methods such as genetic engineering, marker-assisted breeding, and gene editing. It enables researchers to enhance plant traits like yield, drought tolerance, pest resistance, and nutritional content far more precisely and rapidly than conventional breeding alone. These advances are central to addressing global food security challenges while reducing agriculture's environmental footprint.
