People grow gm foods so that they get more crops, disease free crops and crops that will grow in any condition. People get alot of profit from growing gm crops because they can make them grow quicker than normal crops. They give alot more yeild. For example if you plant a normal potato you will get about 20 coming off it but if u plant a gm potato it will get about 30 potatos coming off it and they will all be the same size of potato and the same type of potato.
There is a down side of growing gm crops though and that is that you are basically tampering with nature when you do it and some people even think that the crops growth speed will get out of control and they will take over the earth as it is disease free. Also when you are making the plant disease free you are basically making the plants indistructable, resistant to plant killer.
