other ways of using genetic technology and how it relates to human genetic technologie

Genetic technology has not just been used on humans but also for agricultural purposes. In recent years, farmers and scientists have started using genetic technology to genetically modify food. These modifications are put into place to improve the quality of the crop that is grown in different ways. Some genetic technologies have played a role in making some crops more tolerant of bad weather conditions, allowing them to live longer. Others have help crops grow bigger faster and therefore create more food faster. Genetic technology for agricultural use differs from that for human use but they essentially have the same goal and purpose. in agriculture, some of these technologies are used to kill bugs that are on the plant, which is similar to human technologies that are used to kill viruses in someones body. Some technologies in for agricultural use are used to expand a crop's lifespan which is also used in for human when inserting a trait that allows humans to be healthier and therefore live longer.
