How the use of fertiliser can increase crop yield
Reasons for pest control and the advantages and disadvantages of using pesticides and biological control with crop plants
Table of comparisons between minerals
Table of fertilisers, pest control and their pros & cons
Microorganisms; the role of yeast in the production of food including bread

use of an industrial fermenter and explain the need to provide suitable conditions in the fermenter, including aseptic precautions, nutrients, optimum temperature and pH, oxygenation and agitation, for the growth of micro-organisms
Selective breeding
How selective breeding can develop plants with desired characteristics
How selective breeding can develop animals with desired characteristics
Genetic modification
How restriction enzymes are used to cut DNA at specific sites and ligase enzymes are used to join pieces of DNA together
How plasmids and viruses can act as vectors, which take up pieces of DNA, and then insert this recombinant DNA into other cells
