TO SUBSCRIBE TOVian IsaacBiotech in Agriculture: The Next Phase of EvolutionIn the simplest sense, agricultural biotechnology refers to a bunch of techniques for improving the outcomes of the agricultural industry. It enables the genetic engineering of crops to increase yields and create disease resistance. Biotechnology-derived vaccines also play a vital role in tissue culture regeneration of plant material and increasing livestock life expectancy. According to reports, the global agricultural biotech market was valued at $49,896.5 million in 2021 and is expected to hit $ 113,947.6 million by 2030--at a CAGR of 9.3 percent.Apart from increasing crop yield, biotechnology plays a vital role in the creation of biofuels. They are typically derived from algae, corn stover, and sugarcane bagasse. Biofuels make a significant contribution to reducing greenhouse gas emissions. Another important application of Biofuels is oil cleanup operations. As the world population is witnessing rapid growth every year, food shortage is going to become a critical challenge for the entire world (or it has already become). This is specifically true for emerging economies. Importing food products from other countries is often not a feasible option for them as it might hinder other critical aspects like creating a sound education system or hospitals. Biotechnology has the power to democratize food production across the globe enabling all the production of food in certain areas previously unimaginable.It won't be an exaggeration that the utilization of biotechnology in agriculture will be more in the coming years, and even it can become the mainstay. In this edition, our goal is to make readers acquainted with the changing world of biotechnology.Let us know your thoughts.
