The World Health Organization suggests that each genetically modified food should be evaluated separately for its own safety, however, the perception is created in the international market that GMO foods have passed the safety assessments and have no adverse effects on human health.

Genetic engineering provides many benefits. For example, it could play a role in tackling global warming. Current pesticides used by farmers emit many greenhouse gases. Scientists can change the genetic makeup of crops so that they need less of these harmful chemicals, thereby reducing their carbon footprint.
 
Using GMOs can also help people living in poor conditions. According to a 2017 report in the Canadian Journal of Development Studies, genetically modified seeds can increase the yield of small-scale farms and create rural jobs with better wages.

Genetic engineering offers a way to feed the world despite global warming. Climate change has caused more droughts. According to a 2015 Harvard University paper, scientists can make GMOs that are more resistant to high temperatures and dry conditions.

Despite all this, concern remains about GMOs. A peer-reviewed article published in a scientifically respected journal in 2019 showed that many people still worry about them or oppose the use of genetically modified foods despite agreement among scientists that they are safe to consume.

Aside from the continuation of all these discussions, the most important issue is that there are still question marks in the minds of the consumers, and if a study is not presented that will completely eliminate these question marks, the consumer will be more likely to prefer non-GMO food. For this reason, the GMO Free and NON GMO labels, which are given after independent and impartial inspections by third-party organizations, are extremely effective in the purchase decision of the consumer.
