Definition - Genetically Modified Foods are crop plants that are enhanced with the latest technology to rapidly increase their growth and size.
Pros:
it's time efficient
cost effective
helps to stifle starvation
Cons:
pesticides can have negative effects on humans
makes the technology less effective on the crops
could possibly create new sicknesses and allergies
Conclusion:
While GMFs can have serious negative long term effects, without GMFs farmers would not be able to keep up with the worlds population's massive demands for crops. We want instant gratification; when we want something, we want it NOW. Without GMFs there would be no possibility for farmers to produce what the world is demanding of our crop plants.
