In my opinion, the advantages of agricultural biotechnology outweighs the disadvantages in this case. In regions where there is a lack of nutrition, the locals are struggling to survive; therefore, agricultural biotechnology will allow for them to live longer and have a higher quality of life. Although there will be a loss of biodiversity, the greater impact of a longer life span exceeds this set back. Furthermore, with a prolonged life and better nutrition, this will allow the locals with the help from nationwide organizations to develop new plans to offset the loss of biodiversity

I agree with you. The agricultural biotechnology mightl cause a loss of biodiversity, but as you said this brings a lot of good things, mainly that the food would become more nutrotious and this would help peopla to have a better nutrtion. Adding that it could also expand de access to food to countries which doesn't have any of them. . But also the loss of biodivesrsity can be preventable, the countries can look for ways to decrease this impact and do something completely positive.
