Biotechnology aims at producing ‘bio-farm’ animals with improved meat, milk protein and other products such as high quality wool cannot be underestimated. The medical applications of biotechnology in development of drugs and vaccines and new cheap cost effective diagnostic techniques have gone a long way to alleviate hunger poverty and disease Biotechnology also has applications in wildlife conservation, processing industry, mineral extraction through bioleaching, beverages, drug development, environmental restoration and conservation among others.
