In recent years involved in our daily life new concepts and terms, mainly comes from the field of knowledge of Genetics Revolution and particularly from the application of biotechnology in agriculture. The biotechnology in agriculture offers new methods to change our foods sometime for good but also and for bad purposes.
The Genetic Revolution in plants has contributed to improved production quality agricultural products, resistant to various diseases of plants, insects, drought, frost, etc.
The creation of resistant varieties helps to avoid the dangerous public health spraying with toxic pesticides and to reduce the large economic losses for farmers.
Is real of course always a risk of disruption of the biological balance of nature, with all its obvious adverse effects from the application of these new scientific methods.
The main objective of application of biotechnology in agricultureis the production of agricultural products resistant to the nature elements with the lowest possible cost and highest potential quantities.
The promotion of genetically modified products in the global market is a lucrative business because agriculture constitutes 65% of the worldwide economy.
However, it does not scientifically verify the following:
1 - What are the allergic effects on the human body?
2 - What is their contribution to the development of resistant bacteria to antibiotics?
3 - What are the rules of consumer protection?
It is a fact that discussions around GE crops depleted, primarily in moral and legal component of the problem. The examination of the whole issue, from this perspective, it is perfectly justified because of the anxieties caused by the implementation of revolutionary these new methods, beyond that of the pleasant and unpleasant surprise's reserve, which test the established ethical, legal and social values.
However, the most important aspect of the whole matter is a new role that has been the widespread use of GM crops in the current agricultural reality.
The expectation of increasing global production is the basis of plant breeding as an applied branch of genetics.
A result of these new methods has been the sharp decline in the genetic diversity of plants and the partial abandonment of traditional agriculture in some areas.
It is true that an increase over the production of agricultural products, in recent years, came from the extensive use of fertilizers and pesticides.
The indiscriminate use of such chemicals pollutes the natural environment, but also a financial burden for farmers, thereby increasing production costs.
So Modern agriculture is deadlocked and bears a large extent, on the irrational use of chemical enhancement product.
The field of genetic engineering, which aims to improve the plants making them resistant to viruses and insects, appears to be the solution to the problem for both environmental protection and for the production of larger quantities of agricultural products and lower cost.
At this point there is the big error. The Mutant Agricultural products, high quality, adorn the shelves of super markets of rich countries and talk to people that have been already satiated. These new products are not in any way the outcome of the diet among the poor of the world, as perfectly as if it is the expertise that has been invested in their production. No improvement of plants as perfectly as if it cannot put an end to the problem of hunger plaguing the third-world countries, as consume rich countries, voracious manner, most of the available global energy and food.
