Biology in Agriculture and Food

Feeding the World

Farmers and scientists use biology to increase food production and keep crops healthy.

Practical Techniques

  • Selective breeding creates plants and animals with desirable traits.
  • Biotechnology produces pest-resistant crops, reducing chemical use.
  • Understanding soil ecology helps improve crop yields and sustainability.

Biology ensures we have safe, nutritious food to eat and helps protect the environment.

Examples

  • Farmers grow drought-resistant crops developed through genetic engineering.

  • Biologists study pests to design eco-friendly ways to control them.
