Abstract

Genetically modified (GM) foods have revolutionized agricultural biotechnology since their debut in the mid-1990s, sparking debates about their safety, environmental impact, and potential to solve global food security issues. This review offers a comprehensive look at the global status of GM foods, covering their development, various genetic modifications, and adoption rates across different regions. It delves into the regulatory frameworks that govern GM foods in major markets, noting the variations in regulatory approaches and strictness. The review highlights the benefits of GM foods, such as higher agricultural productivity, better environmental sustainability, improved food security, and enhanced nutritional value. It also addresses the ongoing controversies and challenges, including safety concerns, environmental risks, ethical questions, and public perception issues. Looking ahead, the paper considers the future of GM foods, focusing on advancements in biotechnology, possible changes in policies and regulations, and how GM crops can be integrated into sustainable agriculture practices. By providing a balanced perspective, this review aims to guide stakeholders in making informed, evidence-based decisions about the role of GM foods in addressing global food challenges.
