Scientific developments in farming always bring major benefits. To what extent do you agree or disagree with this statement?

It is often said that modern farming is a key area of scientific research, with broad advantages for all human societies. While I accept that developed agriculture may have its dangers, I believe that the benefits of scientists method outweigh the drawbacks.

A more optimistic prediction, and one that I favour, is that scientists will find ways to mitigate the risks and use genetic technologies and developed farming in a responsible way. From the
