Biotech crops have contributed to significantly reducing the release of greenhouse gas emissions from agricultural practices. This results from less fuel and pesticide use and additional soil carbon storage from conservation tillage with biotech crops. This has made important contributions to reducing soil erosion and improving soil moisture levels.
