Introduction of food plants developed by genetic engineering is not desirable because:
economy of developing countries may suffer
these products are less tasty as compared to the already existing products
this method is costly
there is danger of coming viruses, allergens and toxins with introduced crop
Solution
One specific concern is the possibility for GMOs to negatively affect human health. This could result from differences in nutritional content, allergic response, or undesired side effects such as toxicity, organ damage, or gene transfer.
Related Theory
Some benefits of genetic engineering in agriculture are increased crop yields, reduced costs for food or drug production, reduced need for pesticides, enhanced nutrient composition and food quality, resistance to pests and disease, greater food security, and medical benefits to the world's growing population.
