From her educational text‚ Jenny Ridgwell states‚ “Many supermarkets stock a range of ‘organic’ foods; these are normally more expensive than other foods‚ since it is more difficult to match the volume of perfect fruits and vegetables that are produced by intensive farming. Organic foods are grown using traditional methods of faming without artificial fertilisers‚ pesticides or intensive growing systems. People who eat organic food believe that it tastes better and that it is better for the environment

However‚ in order for animals to adapt and be able to produce‚ it production requires an input to genetically improve. Therefore‚ the Large Scale Genetic Evaluation programs refers to the programs that are used to genetically improve the population of the entire breed in a country. These programs can be used by the breeders‚ geneticists and the breeding

that if someone is a concerned farmer or eater‚ they should know about biodynamics. With the utilization of clear and effective images‚ Mrs. Carlson described Biodynamic agriculture as an ecological farming approach that views each farm as a living organism. The health and well-being of the farmer‚ their animals‚ the farm and the Earth are all seen as integral parts of what make up the whole. Farmers who have adopted the Biodynamic approach‚ view their farms as self-sustaining ecosystems. Like organic

milk they produce to contain more nutrients that have benefits for humans. Another way that farm animals are genetically engineered would be that that are made to create resistance to diseases. This is so the animals will not get sick‚ and will be able to produce healthy milk or meat that can eventually be processed and sold to the public. Another way that animals are used in genetically engineering‚ are that they are used to study the development of drugs‚ and discover how drugs take a toll

What my project is about: I will be comparing results from water testing I did at two different water bodies to prove that the catchment area has an influence over the water quality in the different water bodies. The first water body I tested was the small dam in the bokkie park situated in between residential areas and in the middle of a piece of land solely used for animals. The second water body I tested was the small dam across the road from the Trinity Church in Boksburg on Rondebult Road‚ which

Genetically modified organisms are organisms that’s genetic material has been changed using engineering techniques. Organisms that are genetically modified include microorganisms such as bacteria and yeast‚ insects‚ plants‚ fish‚ and mammals. This alteration of the genes usually entails inserting genetic material into an organism in a laboratory without natural mating‚ breeding or reproduction. Instead of breeding two plants or animals together to bring out certain traits in the offspring‚ the plant

So growing gmo that does not demands pesticide can eliminate the use of chemical substance (=pesticide 중복되서;;;ㅠ). Plus gmo plants genetically made to be resistant to weed-killer which helps to reduce production cost and waste. Plus gmo can be developed in an extreme environment and reduce timing of the harvest or increase the amount of production to solve food shortage. Plus it is tolerant

The Use of Genetically Modified Salmon Throughout history there has always been a need to produce large quantities of crops and livestock which contain the most desirable phenotype. Farmers select for these desirable traits on the most fundamental level employing techniques such as selective breeding and the use of fertilizers. However with the ever growing expansion of today’s society the ability to produce sufficient resources using conventional agricultural methods is limited. The science
