How we can use modern technology in agriculture??

  • Full guidelines about modern ways and technological developments in field of agriculture

  • Answer:

    technology has greatly affected food production... obviously, the use of machineries and alike sped up planting/harvesting processes as well as processing. At the same time, advances in genetic engineering have explored the possibilities of improving the quality of food. a good example is canola oil. Canola oil comes from rapeseed which has toxic/poisonous compound (erucic acid). Genetic manipulations reduced this poisonous materials hence we are safely consuming the product. Crops are more resistant towards environmental stresses and production rates are continuously increasing... I think we are going to see more in the near future... :)

Modern equipments maybe used. Except pesticides or other things which actually damage the crops.

Modern technology is already being used in agriculture. The best example is the use of gene technology or what’s popularly known as agricultural biotechnology in developing drought and herbicide resistant crops. Through genetic engineering, scientists have been able to introduce traits into existing genes to make crops resistant to drought and herbicides. One good example is the use of Bacillus Thuringiensis, commonly known as Bt. Bacillus Thuringiensis, is a bacterium that dwells in soil. It acts as a reservoir “of cry toxins and cry genes for production of biological insecticides and insect-resistant genetically modified crops.” How has gene technology benefited agriculture? Genetically engineered crops such as corn, soy and cotton are being cultivated in more than 21 countries. In the United States, for example, about 60 per cent of corn is genetically modified to resist corn borer, a common pest that feeds on the corn stem. Farmers have embraced genetically modified corn because it yields high. The fact that this corn variety contains Bacillus Thuringiensis saves farmers money that could have been spent buying pesticides. Developing countries such as South Africa, India and Pakistan have embrace modern agricultural biotechnology. In South Africa, for example, farmers are growing Bt. cotton. Reports indicate that Bt cotton yields high that conventional varieties. The story is the same in India. Bt. cotton is proving profitable to farmers.
