Agricultural Biotechnology refers to the combination of biotechnology tools and techniques like genetic engineering, molecular markers, molecular diagnostics, vaccines, and tissue culture to improve agricultural productivity, quality, diversity and species protection. Agricultural Biotechnology is used to cope up with challenges which usually cannot be solved by traditional methods and practices. Agricultural Biotechnology is also implied in climate adaptation, stress management, and disease management. Biotechnology has helped modern technologies to deal with the global food crisis.
