Om denne e-boken

Food Bioengineering explores the role of biotechnology in transforming food production for a growing global population. It highlights how techniques like gene editing and transgenesis are being used to enhance nutritional value, promote sustainable agriculture, and increase disease resistance in crops and livestock. The book argues that responsible application of bioengineering can offer solutions to critical challenges in food security. For example, bioengineering can increase essential nutrients in staple crops, like Golden Rice which is engineered to produce vitamin A.

The book navigates the complexities surrounding GMOs by presenting a fact-based analysis of scientific evidence, regulatory frameworks, and ethical considerations. It systematically introduces food bioengineering concepts, beginning with an overview of genetic modification techniques and their historical context. It then progresses through enhancing nutrition, promoting sustainability (engineering crops to require less water or pesticides), and increasing disease resistance.

A unique value of this book lies in its accessible yet rigorous style, making complex scientific concepts understandable for a broad audience, including students, researchers, and policymakers.
