Engineered corn, such as genetically modified corn, has been developed to be resistant to certain pests and diseases. This can potentially reduce the need for farmers to use pesticides on their corn crops. However, the use of pesticides may still be necessary for some pests that are not affected by the engineered traits of the corn, or for other crops in the same field. Overall, the use of engineered corn can help reduce the reliance on pesticides, but may not eliminate the need for them entirely.
