Researchers from Arba-Minch University and Borena University in Ethiopia evaluated the effects of genetically modified organisms (GMOs) used as livestock feed. GM crops have been widely adopted to improve traits such as yield, nutrition, and resistance to diseases and pests. The study, published in the Journal of Veterinary Medicine and Animal Health, highlighted both the benefits and ongoing concerns associated with the use of GMOs as livestock feed.
Public concerns surrounding GMO feed include possible health risks, environmental impacts, and ethical issues. Critics have raised questions about antibiotic resistance, allergic reactions, gene flow to wild plants, and biodiversity loss.
