Inadvertently found that he bought GM papaya from the supermarket, eat or not eat? Ms. Zhou, who lives on Ruijin Road, is very much awkward. An interview with the reporter found that many people do not talk about "transformation" in terms of genetic modification. So, what is the promotion of transgenic technology in Jiangsu Province? The reporter learned from the Jiangsu Provincial Agriculture Commission that, apart from genetically modified cotton, no crop has been commercialized and promoted.
Good-selling papaya is not labeled with genetic modification
Ms. Zhou, who lives in Ruijin Road, bought a papaya from the supermarket last week. She unwittingly found on the invoice that the returned papaya turned out to be genetically modified. In Ms. Zhou’s mind, transgenes seem a bit unsafe. Is this papaya eaten or not eaten? Ms. Zhou was guilty of guilt.
Yesterday, at a large supermarket in Xinjiekou, the reporter saw three kinds of papayas being sold. One was a good imported papaya. The label was also marked as "non-genetically modified." The price was 14.8 yuan per catty; Fine papaya origin in Hainan, the price is 5.6 yuan a pound, the label reads "tree ripe papaya"; the most common kind of papaya in Hainan sold poorly, the surface is paralyzed, the price is 4.98 yuan a pound.
Many customers come and go to pick papaya, most will choose the latter two. "I just felt that it was affordable and I didn't pay attention to genetic modification." A customer who bought two fine papayas told reporters, "Of course, if you can clearly indicate on the label that genetically modified products are better, consumers have the right to know. ."
[Experts say something]
South Agricultural University Expert
Non-posted gene tags consider acceptance
"A kind of genetically modified foods from the laboratory to the table, you need to undergo research and evaluation, access to variety safety certificate, promotion of production and other steps." An expert from Nanjing Agricultural University College told reporters that the state's requirements for genetically modified foods are very harsh.
"The genetically modified papaya is indeed sold." The expert admitted that the genetically modified papaya is more resistant to diseases. If genetic technology is not used, it will be almost devastating once papaya grows. As for why papaya can't be labeled as genetically modified, the expert explained that she knew that many farmers who grow papaya are small-scale operations, and it is indeed difficult to operate them. People still have doubts about genetically modified foods. For sales considerations, businesses may not be marked.
“Now the state approves the planting of genetically modified cotton and papaya. The government departments are very cautious when it comes to food crops that are imported, and these foods are popularized in consideration of people’s acceptance and opinion,†the expert said.
Nanjing Agricultural Technology Extension Station Manager
Supermarket some genetic oil "play stealth"
Zhang Yong, head of Nanjing Agricultural Technology Promotion Station, visited the supermarket and discovered that many genetic oils “play stealthâ€. “I myself am a housewife. I usually go to the supermarket to shop. There is no special concern about whether or not the genetically modified mark is down.†Zhang Yong told reporters that she had more information on agriculture and food than the average person, but she had more knowledge of genetically modified foods. Attitude, on the contrary, not as nervous as everyone else, not to talk about genetic changes.
Kemay also said that she is absolutely in favor of the state's stipulation that genetically modified food should be clearly identified. For example, some brands of soybean oil are clearly marked with non-transgenic products in the prominent position of the trademark. The fonts are large and very eye-catching. However, some oil bottles can't find any "genetically modified" words, but on the back of the ingredient labeling table, "transgenic rapeseed oil," a few small fonts, almost annihilated in the list of ingredients, do not pay attention to look hard to find .
For the “bashfulness†of the logo, Zhang Yong suggested that in the future relevant regulations can be issued and that genetically modified and non-transgenic products should be standardized.
Transgenic in Jiangsu
Except cotton, no commercialization of other crops was promoted
The reporter learned from the Jiangsu Provincial Agriculture Commission and the Jiangsu Academy of Agricultural Sciences that there is no commercial crop promotion other than genetically modified cotton.
“Although major scientific research units in Jiangsu Province have standardized GM crop experiment bases, they are not large-scale and are used for experimental research in a completely closed state.†Related experts from Jiangsu Academy of Agricultural Sciences introduced these experiments. The main research base of rice, corn and other crops against pests, herbicides and other stress resistance.
In addition, there are currently 20 companies in Jiangsu that are allowed to import and process oils and fats from imported genetically modified raw materials. The relevant staff of the Jiangsu Provincial Agriculture Commission stated that agricultural genetically modified organism processing enterprises (mainly oil and fat processing) must meet the conditions stipulated in the “Regulations on the Administration of Agricultural Genetically Modified Organisms†and the “Procedures for the Examination and Approval of Agricultural Genetically Modified Organisms Processing†and obtain administrative approval. In the production process, the agricultural administrative department of the place where the enterprise is located will conduct on-site inspections on a regular basis and promptly put forward rectification opinions on the problems found. The Provincial Commission of Agriculture commissioned relevant scientific research units to track and monitor the biosafety of processing companies to prevent the proliferation of genetically modified organisms.
