The biotechnology, we have to know it, is not only attached to be aplicated to medical/health things. agriculture clearly fits the broad definition of "using a biotechnological system to make products" such that the cultivation of plants may be viewed as the earliest biotechnological enterprise. Since the human`s begins, the biotechnology is present, no that advance as our technology but with some relation, for example the Indians, select the best herbs to cure themselves The processes and methods of agriculture have been refined by other mechanical and biological sciences since its inception. Through early biotechnology, farmers were able to select the best suited crops, having the highest yields, to produce enough food to support a growing population. Other uses of biotechnology were required as the crops and fields became increasingly large and difficult to maintain. Specific organisms and organism by-products were used to fertilize, restore nitrogen, and control pests. Cultures such as those in Mesopotamia, Egypt, and India developed the process of brewing beer. It is still done by the same basic method of using malted grains (containing enzymes) to convert starch from grains into sugar and then adding specific yeasts to produce beer. There are four types of biotechnology, first is the blue biotechnology, this consist in the use of this technology in the seas, rivers and other water sources, like the clean of the oil wastes with other organic composes, second is the ...
