  rdf:value "Genetic improvement in agriculture refers to the process of selectively breeding crops, livestock or aquaculture farmed types with desirable traits in order to create offspring with improved characteristics. This is typically accomplished through careful selection of individuals with desirable traits and the controlled mating of those individuals to produce offspring with a higher likelihood of inheriting those traits. Traditional selective breeding is increasingly being supplemented by advanced technologies such as genomics and genetic engineering, which allows scientists to directly target or manipulate the DNA of organisms to enhance selection to create new traits or enhance existing ones."@en ;
