More than two billion people worldwide suffer from micronutrient deficiencies, including iron, zinc, and vitamin A, which cause anemia, reduced immunity, stunted development, and cognitive impairments. Biofortification, which involves boosting key micronutrient levels in crops through plant breeding and biotechnology, is a sustainable and cost-effective technique for improving human nutrition. This article describes how biofortified crops are developed using various breeding methodologies, such as traditional breeding, molecular breeding, and contemporary genomic technologies. The main success stories, benefits, problems, and future potential for breeding initiatives are presented. Strengthening breeding efforts for biofortified crops will help eliminate hidden hunger and improve global nutritional security.
