Nature can play a major role in future technologies in agriculture, powerful poisons from a variety of animals and insects are a practical substitute to damaging pesticides used in agriculture. Animal venom could be nature’s own problem-solver for food security. Scientists are looking to harness venomous properties in the field of farming, using venomics. Venomics combines venom research with genomics (the branch of molecular biology concerned with the structure, function, evolution, and mapping of genomes) to change the way venom is used. Researchers are looking to develop bio-insecticides using venom to kill insects naturally. Pesticides are used to protect crops from damage by insects, but these chemicals also damage the environment and human health.
