Trends in the global commercialization of genetically modified crops in 2023

Abstract

The commercialization of genetically modified (GM) crops has increased food production, improved crop quality, reduced pesticide use, promoted changes in agricultural production methods, and become an important new production strategy for dealing with insect pests and weeds while reducing the cultivated land area. This article provides a comprehensive examination of the global distribution of GM crops in 2023. It discusses the internal factors that are driving their adoption, such as the increasing number of GM crops and the growing variety of commodities. This article also provides information support and application guidance for the new developments in global agricultural science and technology.
