Biotechnological tools applied to field and forest for higher yields and care

Agricultural, livestock and forestry biotechnology applies techniques and tools from molecular biology, genetics and genetic engineering to improve crop production, animal breeding and forestry. This area seeks to develop new varieties of plants and animals with improved characteristics, such as greater disease resistance, higher yields and better nutritional quality. It also seeks to improve production and management techniques in agriculture, animal husbandry and forestry, reducing their environmental impact and improving their sustainability.
