GMO Crops & Seeds Market: Demand for Longer Shelf Life, Anti-Pest Properties to Boost Growth

The global GMO crops and seeds market is treading a growth path for the dire need to expand crop production globally. Due to the exploding global population, crop production via conventional agriculture is insufficient to fulfill the food needs. This has necessitated alternate means of crop production that are viable and sustainable. To that end, GMO seeds have served to not only magnify crop yield, but develop robust crop varieties.

In recent years, breakthrough developments in biotechnology has aided the growth of the agricultural sector. With extensive R&D, researchers have been successful to modify genes in laboratory environments. Unlike traditional method of natural process of modifying gene over generations of cross-fertilization, GMO crops and seeds are developed by modifying genes by directly inserting them into the DNA of the seed. These genetically modified seeds when used in commercial agriculture produces much higher crop yield. Such successful outcomes are boosting the demand for GMO crops and seeds.
