a. The Bt toxin could negatively affect the taste of the food that is produced from these crops.

c. The Bt toxin could result in the death of non-pest species of insects. d. The Bt gene could ultimately make the plants pathogenic to humans.

Explanation:

Genetically engineered crops couldn't harm the economy. They are made to benefit economy, as it's shown in the following quote:

"The commercialization of genetically modified (GM) crops has continued to occur at a rapid rate, with important changes in both the overall level of adoption and impact occurring in 2012.

This annual updated analysis shows that there have been very significant net economic benefits at the farm level amounting to $18.8 billion in 2012 and $116.6 billion for the 17-year period (in nominal terms)."
