Abstract
Agricultural biotechnology holds significant promise for addressing the complex challenges faced by developing countries in meeting the growing demands for food security, sustainable agriculture, and socio-economic development. The application of biotechnology in crop improvement has led to the development of Genetically Modified (GM) crops with enhanced yield, resistance to pests and diseases, and tolerance to environmental stresses. These traits contribute to increased productivity, reduced crop losses, and improved livelihoods for smallholder farmers in developing regions. Additionally, biotechnological advancements have facilitated the development of bio fortified crops, addressing malnutrition by enhancing the nutritional content of staple crops. This abstract provides an overview of the role of agricultural biotechnology in addressing these challenges within the context of developing countries.
