The article states that some companies provide genetic modification trees that have so many benefits for its users and claims that planting genetically modified trees on a large scale promises to bring a number of benefits. However, the professor explains that there are some benefits for planting genetic trees, but it has serious problems and costs and she refutes each of the author's reasons.
First, the reading argues that genetically modified trees are harder than natural trees and they are more likely to survive in harsh conditions. Nevertheless, the professor refutes this point by stating that these trees are resistance in one condition but natural trees are survived in many conditions. She also mentions that if we have some environmental or climate change; because these trees are uniform, all of those are going to die.
Second, the article claims that genetically modified trees tend to grow faster, give greater yields of food, fruit, or other products and be harder, and bring a lot of economic benefits. However, the professor contends that it cost so much for its seed and by law, whenever the farmers want to plant a new tree, they must pay for every single tree.
Third, the reading avers that using genetically modified trees will satisfy the demand for woods and prevent overexploitation of wild trees. The lecture opposes this point by saying that it causes more damage because these trees grow faster and compete for sun and water with other natural trees.
