Genetically modified organisms (GMOs) have become the cornerstone of modern agriculture, offering solutions to some of the most pressing issues such as food security, pest control, and climate change. This article discusses the risks and safety standards of using genetically modified organisms (GMOs) in agriculture. Regulatory approaches in Europe, the USA, and Russia are analyzed, as well as the potential environmental and social consequences of GMO use. Both positive and negative aspects of the introduction of GMOs in the agricultural sector are evaluated.
