• Product: Increasing demand for Insect-tolerant (IT) Crops to eliminate need for insecticides

  Herbicide-tolerant (HT) crops are genetically modified to withstand specific herbicides that would otherwise destroy the crop along with the weed. The primary need for herbicide tolerance in crops arises from the pressure to manage weeds effectively, which compete with crops for nutrients, sunlight, and space, leading to reduced crop yields. Herbicide-tolerant crops enable farmers to apply herbicides post-emergence, killing weeds without harming the crop. Insect-tolerant (IT) crops contain genes that provide resistance against specific pests, eliminating the need for certain insecticides. Insect-tolerant technology for GMO crops is preferred for farmers who face significant crop losses due to insect predation.
