Your group's task is to become better informed about the use of biotechnology in the production of corn.  Has biotechnology had a positive impact on agriculture and should this practice continue? Or is biotechnology  detrimental and should it not be promoted as a modern agricultural practice?   Develop a presentation and  brochure reflecting your group's position on this question.

Some of the issues you may want to consider include the environmental impact, the economic impact, and the agronomic impact of biotechnology as it pertains to corn production.  Your position should be based on current research.
