What are the possible benefits of the "Terminator technology"?..

Answer / swapna

Transgenic crops with TPS will not spread their genes to
surrounding plants.

The TPS genes are transferred on pollen, so any plant
pollinated by a TPS plant will produce dead seeds.

This would prevent accidental gene flow from transgenic
crops to wild plant populations.

Companies may develop improved crop varieties .

If a seed company knows it will be able to "protect its
investment" in the development of new varieties, including
transgenics, by preventing farmers from saving seed and
replanting from year to year, more effort will be put into
the development of improved varieties.
