摘要：
Farmer's yields in the developing world are often limited by unreliable rains. Biotechnology plays an important role in the developing world, which includes genetic traits in agriculture. Genetically modified crops are easy and simple to be cultivated. Agricultural biotechnology is revolutionzed with the use of Agrobacterium method of introducing new genes into plants. Agronomy and biotechnology approaches are complementary and synergistic.
