Solution
The correct option is C Genetic Engineering
Genetic engineering in agriculture has the potential to improve crop yields and to greatly reduce the risk of crops being lost to extreme weather conditions.
The next generation of genetic engineering, following this, will aim to reduce the threat to crops from natural sources, such as sudden temperature change or extreme drought.
