Transgenic Rice

Transgenic rice is rice that has been genetically modified by adding specific genes from other organisms to improve its qualities. This process enhances traits such as higher yields, pest resistance, drought tolerance, or nutritional content. Scientists use sophisticated techniques to insert new genes into rice plants' DNA, allowing them to better withstand environmental challenges and reduce the need for chemical pesticides. Transgenic rice aims to address food security, improve farmer productivity, and provide better nutrition, playing a significant role in sustainable agriculture worldwide.
