What are the benefits of genetically modified foods?

There are many advantages to genetically modified food for example:

• No pesticides or herbicides- in GM food there is not much herbicides and pesticies in gm foods as they have a strong immune system and give there own chemical off - which keeps creatures away.
• GM foods can grow in difficult conditions- you can buy GM foods in winter because they have a anti freeze gene from cold water fish. They use this gene in plants such as potato and tobbaco. They are also able to survive in drought conditions
  
• Diesaese ressitant- GM foods can servive many harmful diesases from fungi and bacteria.
• Nutritional value- In some GM foods they have more nutrition, but this is not always the case. In 3rd world countrys, scientists have made a crop called 'golden rice' it costs the same as normal rice but have a better nutriontal value in it.
• Increased shelf life- it can last much longer than ordinary foods
