Chapter 779 Genetically Modified Crops

"Honey, there's one thing I really don't understand!" Xiao Peng asked Yali with a frown during breakfast.

Arlie ate her toast and asked, "What's not to understand?"

Xiao Peng said: "We are here to experience skiing and the living feeling of a country house, right?"

Ally nodded, "That's right, what's the problem?"

Xiao Peng said indignantly: "Then why do I want to live in an RV?"

After coming back with the two girls, the room was not enough, and Xiao Peng was not good to go to live in other girls' rooms, so he could only go back to the RV and sleep for one night, which was called a tangle.

An Xiaoya laughed: "Mr. Xiao, I'm sorry, it's all because we have too few rooms here." Let you be wronged. ”

Speaking of which, Xiao Peng couldn't say anything, this was also what he found himself, in fact, he could have found a room to get into, couldn't he? But with so many outsiders, he was still embarrassed. In the end, I had to go back to the car and sleep for the night.

Xiao Peng hurriedly waved his hand: "I don't blame you for this, if you want to blame the two of them!" After speaking, he pointed to Sophia and Kayatana who were eating breakfast on the side, the two of them were eating with relish, but when they saw Xiao Peng pointing at themselves, the two bowed their heads together.

An Xiaoya smiled: "Speaking of which, I want to thank you, I haven't seen my old Dai so happy for a long time, but he tossed in the middle of the night yesterday." It's been a long, long time since I've seen him drink like this. ”

Xiao Peng was embarrassed when he heard this: "It's all my fault." ”

"No, no, no, I didn't mean to complain about you, if the relationship wasn't in place, I wouldn't be able to drink that point, wouldn't I?" An Xiaoya smiled: "Come, try the breakfast I made today to entertain your arrival! Those two guys are too embarrassing for us Northeast people, they can get drunk like this? ”

Everyone else was eating breakfast there, only Xiao Peng was still waiting there, and An Xiaoya looked mysterious. I don't know what she's doing.

After Xiao Peng's breakfast was served for a while, Xiao Peng laughed: "Tofu brain? It's amazing! I haven't eaten this thing for a long time! Do you buy soybeans and grind them yourself?"

An Xiaoya shook her head and said: "It's the soybeans we grow ourselves, alas, these Swiss have really been defeated, you know, we Chinese people like to grow something wherever we go, right? We wanted to plant something, but it turned out to be good, and we had to plant something with the permission of our neighbors, saying that we couldn't destroy the overall beauty, and in the end, no matter what they planted, they said no, it was to destroy the beauty of the place, and they said that the lawn could only be planted with grass, not anything else, and finally we were only allowed to plant some soybeans by building a fence. These tofu brains are made from soybeans that we grow ourselves. But then again, it's really hard to buy non-GMO soybean seeds here, and my old Dai has been looking for seeds for a long time. It's a little more comfortable to eat, isn't it?"

In fact, tofu brain is very easy to make, but considering that he is traveling with a few foreign girls, Xiao Peng really didn't consider making this kind of food to eat------ Westerners are not interested in soy products, they think that they are all fed to livestock。。。。。。

It can't be said that they are not interested, it can only be said that they have not eaten it, they are not like the Orientals, and the Orientals cannot do without soybeans. The most difficult part of the trade war between China and the Stars and Stripes is that both sides dare not touch the soybean issue casually.

China's demand for soybeans in the Stars and Stripes is too great. Without the supply of soybeans from the Stars and Stripes, the lives of the Chinese people would be greatly affected, and the Stars and Stripes would be completely dependent on the Chinese market for soybeans, without which a large part of their capital producing areas would have to be converted to production.

Many people don't understand why soybeans are so important to China, because the domestic soybean production is difficult to meet the consumption of the domestic market. Soybeans are the most critical part of Chinese people's livelihood.

This is not the consumption of soybean oil, tofu, and soy products, which are all insignificant. The most important demand for soybeans in China is actually the same as in the West, and the most important thing is also used in breeding. It's just that Chinese people also eat soybeans, but Westerners don't eat them.

If you want to ensure your own pig production, meat supply, egg supply, etc., you need a large amount of soybean meal as feed. To meet these conditions, Huaxia can only rely on large quantities of soybeans.

This point is actually more painful for Chinese people, and the decline of the Northeast is actually related to soybeans.

Huaxia is the homeland of soybeans, which has been cultivated for more than 4,000 years. Moreover, before 1995, Huaxia was still a net exporter of soybeans, and 90% of the world's soybean market share was Huaxia soybeans, and Huaxia was a well-deserved soybean producer at that time.

Today, however, China has changed from a net exporter of soybeans to the world's largest importer of soybeans, and now China imports the most agricultural products is soybeans! More than 80 percent of soybeans are imported. In just a few years, it has become like this, and the development speed of Huaxia is the same, which can be called 'rocket speed'. And almost all imported soybeans are genetically modified soybeans.

These genetically modified soybeans are actually Northeast soybeans from China, and the oil yield of soybeans has been increased through genetic modification. Compared with Northeast soybeans, these genetically modified soybeans have a poor taste and low protein content, but high oil content, and low cost and low price.

What about soybeans in Northeast China? The taste is good, the protein content is high, but the oil content is two or three percentage points lower than that of genetically modified soybeans, don't underestimate these two or three percentage points, for every 1 percentage point lower soybean oil yield, the efficiency of processing 100,000 tons of soybeans is 15 million yuan!

This has also led to a large number of soybean farmers in Northeast China have become a situation where they have no beans to grow: planting soybeans, they can't sell imported soybeans, and enterprises are reluctant to buy them, the price is higher than that of soybeans in Stars and Stripes, and the purchase and transportation costs are also high. Don't grow soybeans, what to eat and drink? You know, don't look at the planting is almost the same, but if the planting varieties are different, the planting methods are also very different!

And, as Kissinger said, "If you control oil, you control the country, and if you control food, you control humanity." In order to achieve this, the Stars and Stripes dumped their products with huge subsidies, with 40% of the income of the Stars and Stripes farmers coming from agricultural subsidies, compared to less than 4% of the Chinese farmers. I have to say that at least in the soybean link, Huaxia let the Stars and Stripes choke the throat.

Of course, the Chinese government will not sit idly by and watch this happen, and the Chinese government has always been very cautious on the issue of genetic modification. The policy for genetically modified foods is: non-food first, non-staple food second, and then staple food. It's all built on security.

So far, the only genetically modified crops approved by the relevant departments for safety certificates are shelf-stable tomatoes, insect-resistant cotton, petunia with changed flower color, disease-resistant peppers, disease-resistant papaya, phytase corn and insect-resistant rice, and only insect-resistant cotton and disease-resistant papaya are approved for commercial planting.

The ridiculous thing is that once 61 academicians of the Chinese Academy of Sciences and the Chinese Academy of Sciences jointly wrote to the leaders of the country, requesting that the industrialization of genetically modified rice be promoted as soon as possible. However, the leaders did not adopt their opinions at all, and we must be cautious and cautious in dealing with the commercialization of staple foods! Safety first!

This is really a very wise thing, and the world's genetically modified research and development has been used for nearly 30 years. No country has promoted the genetically modified staple foods! However, these people have vigorously advocated the genetically modified staple grains of China.

You must know that there is not a single safety report in the whole world on the long-term consumption of genetically modified foods! However, there are so many people who do not eat it themselves but let the common people eat it, and use 1.4 billion Chinese people as guinea pigs for experiments.

Up to now, these seven genetically modified crops, disease-resistant pepper and shelf-stable tomato, have not been accepted by consumers in production, while disease-resistant rice and phytase corn have not completed the subsequent variety approval, so they have not been commercially planted.

But there are also many places where farmers are illegally planting genetically modified crops, and many seed companies are selling genetically modified seeds openly or covertly. After all, isn't it profitable? Some localities are secretly planting genetically modified corn, genetically modified rice, and other grains, and the current state policy is to see them and investigate and deal with them together.

Of course, genetically modified crops as a new thing, will definitely bring controversy, some people think it is good, some people think it is bad, all the new things in the world will face such controversy when they first appear, only time will prove all the results. This is unavoidable, and Xiao Peng can't say whether GM-gene-food is good or bad, but Xiao Peng's principle is: whoever wants to be a guinea pig will do it, and Lao Tzu will not do it!

Then again, even if you don't want to be a guinea pig, in fact, many people's food is now using genetically modified raw materials, and now the people eat blended oil, salad oil, corn oil, and soybean oil are almost all made of genetically modified raw materials; This is the same all over the world.

If you have to say anything different, when buying these things in Western countries, consumers will be reminded in a conspicuous place: this is genetically modified-food, while in China, according to the "Administrative Measures for the Identification of Agricultural Genetically Modified Organisms", GM-gene-food should also be labeled.

But Chinese people have always lived carefully, attach importance to life, if you really remind in a conspicuous place that this is genetically modified-food, I am afraid that sales will be greatly affected, so in Huaxia, almost all gene-gene-food labels will be hidden in the most inconspicuous place of the packaging, if you don't look carefully at all, you can't see the kind at all, or simply change the name, it is not considered that people see it and don't know what it is.

Besides, almost all of the pork, beef, and chicken we usually eat are grown up eating genetically modified feed. It can only be said that those who don't know are not afraid, or they are not sick if they don't eat cleanly.

When it comes to the illegal cultivation of genetically modified crops, there are actually not many things in China. At present, all staple foods such as corn and rice are secretly planted and genetically modified seeds are sold. But there's one thing that's very safe. That's wheat.

Because wheat is the staple food of Westerners, wheat in the world is not high in GMO commercialization, so flour is GMO-free。。。。。。

Ya has come up with the technology to make people from other countries as guinea pigs, so these Westerners don't have a good thing!
