A biotecnologia é uma área de produção e investigação em que os sistemas biológicos e os princÃpios biológicos são utilizados para resolver problemas tecnológicos. As aplicações de herbicidas, pesticidas e fertilizantes aumentaram consideravelmente o rendimento das culturas no passado. A biotecnologia agrÃcola pode provavelmente desempenhar um papel fundamental na corrida para alimentar a população mundial em expansão com menos factores de produção e em cada vez menos terra disponÃvel. A engenharia genética das plantas representa o próximo passo para melhorar as plantas utilizadas na produção de alimentos para consumo humano e animal. A biotecnologia agrÃcola é uma técnica poderosa que oferece um grande potencial para a sustentabilidade da agricultura e a produção segura de alimentos com maior valor nutritivo, frescura prolongada e até propriedades de combate a doenças, mas não é isenta de controvérsia. O potencial das culturas transgénicas para aliviar a fome humana e as controvérsias que se baseiam invariavelmente em visões da nova tecnologia a partir de perspectivas éticas muito diferentes que dividiram tanto o público como as comunidades cientÃficas são discutidos.
