Rice: Although the Ministry of Agriculture only approved the safety certificate in 2009, it has never approved large-scale planting. But around 2005, it was illegally planted in some areas and mixed with ordinary rice for sale. In April, 2065438+00, China Newsweek reported that transgenic rice seeds were illegally sold in Hubei, Jiangxi, Anhui, Jiangsu, Sichuan, Hunan, Henan, Zhejiang and other places.
Corn: Monsanto's Dika 007/008 is planted over10 million mu in Guangxi, and Pioneer's Xianyu 335 is also distributed in northern provinces of China. Although they all denied that they were genetically modified varieties, it was reported that more than half of the sperm samples of Guangxi college students were unqualified, Shanxi mice disappeared and livestock were abnormal.
At present, there are more than 100 transgenic projects, covering almost all foods in China (such as potatoes, tomatoes, sweet peppers, rape, papaya, etc. ), and how many of them entered the market illegally, there is no way to know. According to the fact that the process of genetically modified rice, corn, vegetables, melons and other foods entering the market was hidden before, we have been deeply surrounded by genetically modified foods and lost the right to choose not to eat genetically modified foods.
