099 Genetic crops
The issue of genetic crops has always been a problem that many people are reluctant to address. Some people have tried this question before, but the result is not to leave in disgrace. However, what no one expected was that a certain brick family in China began to advocate genetically modified high-yield soybeans again. The key is that many people believe it, and there are some senior leading cadres mixed in with this.
Deng Zhiyuan likes to read scientific magazines in his spare time, especially in the field of agriculture, forestry and animal husbandry, and he pays great attention to them. It seems that whenever a scientific journal is published, he will find time to read it, and even if he doesn't have time, he will squeeze out as much time as possible. After reading the magazine for so many years, and quoting a lot of useful things from the magazine, it has made the agricultural development of western Guangdong good.
Recently, the magazine has been full of articles on genetically modified soybeans, especially the experts he pays special attention to, who have come forward to say that genetically modified soybeans can be planted, and genetically modified soybeans will not harm human genes. Of course, there was a lot of opposition, and a certain production director and a famous actor of a certain TV station stood up to denounce these experts. Despite this, Deng Zhiyuan still trusts those experts very much in his heart, and some agricultural problems in western Guangdong were solved by relying on those experts.
"Director Zhu, what do you think of the introduction of genetically modified soybeans in our province?" Deng Zhiyuan is the kind of person who is resolute and resolute, and after reading the magazine, he didn't directly call Zhu Liwei, director of the Department of Agriculture, and ask him about it. This must be Zhu Liwei, who is also from the agricultural sector.
As everyone knows, Deng Zhiyuan was wrong, this Zhu Liwei graduated from Agricultural University, but his academic qualifications are not real. Of course, although the other party was not a leader of the agricultural department, he later sat in the position of leader of the agricultural department for various reasons.
Zhu Liwei also has this point, that is, he can observe words and looks, this is not a careful look at Deng Zhiyuan's expression, and he guessed something, that is, the leader plans to introduce this genetically modified soybean. Seeing this, the next thing is naturally easy to do.
"Secretary Deng, genetically modified soybeans are a good project, our province and even the whole country soybeans are not very high-yielding, but this genetically modified soybean is different, if introduced, his yield per mu will exceed two to three times the original, and his oil yield is also extremely high, more than four or five times more ????than ordinary soybeans." Zhu Liwei said eloquently that the issue of genetically modified soybeans has been talked about in China early, especially during this period of time, the controversy is even more outrageous, which Zhu Liwei is also concerned about in private, otherwise, he would not have such strong theoretical knowledge.
"So if we introduce genetically modified soybeans in our province, will there be any adverse consequences, such as if people eat them, it will have an impact on the next generation or lead to the sterilization of some livestock?" After Deng Zhiyuan listened, he quickly asked the question in his heart.
"There will be a part of the impact, but it will definitely not lead to sterilization, those people are nonsense, fertility inheritance, this thing is not just relying on food, or relying on the surrounding environment and people's own genetic problems. Genetically modified soybeans have been widely cultivated in North America, and they have even extended this technology to wheat. Imagine that they love life so much, and they all eat these things, what else do we have to worry about? Zhu Liwei shook his head after listening, and then explained.
As for the issue of genetically modified, he has studied it before, especially in their province, but the transgenic is just immature genetically modified seeds. In his opinion, if it is based on real genetically modified seeds, it is absolutely impossible to fail.
Next, Zhu Liwei told Deng Zhiyuan about some successful examples, which made Deng Zhiyuan settle down; Here we are, and I am going to raise this matter at the Standing Committee. Let's see how others are doing, and once everyone agrees, they will be the first to introduce this genetically modified soybean in Hexi Province.
On the Standing Committee, Deng Zhiyuan threw out the topic of genetically modified soybeans at a timely time, but what he didn't expect was that most people were opposed, especially Deputy Secretary Sun Zhenan, who was almost killed by this genetically modified last time. Now when he heard about GMO, regardless of thirty-seven twenty-one, he took the lead in standing up against it.
The topic of genetically modified organisms has been discussed these days, and some brick families have privately advocated the benefits of genetically modified organisms. But this topic has not yet been decided, and the special experts from the central government are further examining this issue. They have already started to study to see if this genetically modified gene is harmful to humans.
Since there is no conclusion above, Hexi actually wants to bring it in, most of the people are opposed, even the people who stand on Deng Zhiyuan's side began to hesitate this time. If the benefits of this genetically modified gene are really great, they will choose to support it, in case the genetically modified gene is too harmful, they are not willing to bear the sinners of this history. The last time the issue of genetically modified food seeds still has a very deep memory for some people, and they are afraid that they will repeat the mistakes of the past.
"Secretary Deng, I personally still disagree with this genetically modified genetically modified. Not to mention the rest, even the central government has not issued any conclusions, if we really bring in Hexi, in case there are any bad consequences, this is not what we are doing can bear. In addition, there are frequent outbreaks in China against genetically modified food, which will become the ???? for us to introduce genetically modified soybeans." Qiu Liju, Minister of Organization of the Provincial Party Committee, put down the teacup in her hand and spoke slowly.
Deng Zhiyuan didn't say anything when he heard this? He needs to see Ye Tianxiong's attitude now, although Ye Tianxiong's voice in the Standing Committee has been reduced, but he himself is the No. 2 person in the province, which should not be underestimated. Not only Deng Zhiyuan is waiting, but others are also waiting for Ye Tianxiong's attitude.
"This issue is not of much benefit to us in Hexi. The issue of genetically modified organisms has been debated for many years, and when people choose to shop, they will see if there are genetically modified things in this thing, and once genetically modified is involved, they will not choose such food.
Imagine that the people below are so resistant to genetically modified food, why do we have to do the opposite? Even if we do introduce genetically modified soybeans, and genetically modified soybeans have a high yield, just ask, who will buy these soybeans? Is it an unscrupulous manufacturer, or an unscrupulous boss?
If the people are willing to accept this genetically modified soybean, our province still needs to consider it. For this reason, I think the province should take a poll to see what ordinary people mean below. If more than 70 or 80 percent agree, the province can consider introducing it. If even 10 percent of people disagree, I think it's better to forget about this issue. Seeing that everyone else was looking at him, Ye Tianxiong quickly said the words he was brewing. On the issue of genetically modified organisms, he also asked people to conduct scientific research in private, but he still has not been able to give an accurate explanation. Through various experiments, this genetically modified thing is still good, but I just don't know if there will be any bane in the future.
There has been a huge controversy about the safety of genetically modified foods, and there is no international consensus at present. It has only existed for more than 10 years, and many of its long-term effects are still unknown, and eating genetically modified foods is like treating yourself as a white mouse, with unpredictable risks. Therefore, the precautionary principle should be adopted for genetically modified foods, and genetically modified raw materials should not be used in food production until the long-term safety is fully determined.
For a long time, genetic engineering has been "deified" and preached as a new revolution in agricultural development, while its negative effects have rarely been discussed. In particular, high-level decision-makers in governments have a hard time hearing about the dangers of GMOs. In the long run, it will certainly lead to fatal mistakes for the future development of mankind.
Currently, Mexico bans the cultivation of genetically modified corn; EU suspends imports of genetically modified foods; Japan, Australia, New Zealand and other countries all require genetically modified foods to be clearly labeled to indicate the content of genetically modified ingredients; Many large supermarkets in the UK prohibit the use of GMOs as raw materials in the production of food.
The trade friction between Europe and the United States due to "genetic melons and fruits" is that Europeans are unwilling to eat "genetic melons and fruits" produced by Americans. Later, some "people of insight" in the United States proposed that "genetic melons and fruits" must be labeled when they are sold. On March 26, at the beginning of the new millennium, 3,500 people took advantage of the "Bio 2000" conference to protest against food manufacturers for not testing GM foods and providing consumers with enough relevant information. Domestic insiders have pointed out worriedly, "the study of genetically modified food has shown that herbicide-tolerant genetically modified soybeans have reduced anti-cancer ingredients, and insect-resistant genetically modified corn has also affected the maturity of beneficial insects while increasing the mortality rate of pests, and small animals eating genetically modified potatoes will damage their internal organs and immune system, so what ......about people." Europeans banned the sale of genetically modified foods in Europe precisely because they could be harmful to humans; Even in the United States, distributors are required to have labels for genetically modified foods.
Through the poll, others think that this suggestion is still good, but after they heard some of the facts listed by Ye Tianxiong, they already knew the result in their hearts, that is, ten percent of the people below would not approve of the introduction of genetically modified crops. Don't people in Mexico stop the cultivation of genetically modified corn? If you look at Europe, they don't want to accept this thing.
Deng Zhiyuan was stunned in his heart, he had also read these news, but he consulted a large number of experts, and these experts told him that in fact, these are not very important, don't you see, Lao Mei is still peddling genetically modified food? Just imagine that they can all be peddled, and there will definitely be no harm.
However, in this situation, even if Deng Zhiyuan has the intention to force it through, the people below will be dissatisfied with him. Since he took office, he has used his veto power several times, not only has he been questioned by the leaders above, but also by the leaders above, especially Ye Tianxiong, who has been reprimanded by the leaders many times, saying that he has no organization, no overall situation and so on. In fact, the culprit of this is not that Deng Zhiyuan himself is too domineering, so that others are dissatisfied, so that he has to use the legendary veto power in order to pass some policies.
Since we are conducting public opinion polls, it is naturally necessary to set up a public opinion survey team, and the leader of this group is naturally Deng Zhiyuan, and the director of the office is Guan Daijun. In other words, the provincial party committee will be fully responsible for this investigation team, and as for the provincial government, it will do whatever it should do.
Ye Tianxiong didn't feel anything? The question of genetically modified organisms, does he really not want to ingest it? If you don't do it well, you may have a future in it.
"Governor, what the hell is Secretary Deng doing? Doesn't he know that the above does not support this genetically modified gene? Why do you still do this? As soon as the Standing Committee ended, Yu Yang followed Ye Tianxiong away, and he couldn't help but enter Ye Tianxiong's office, Yu Yang said dissatisfiedly.
"Secretary Deng is also for the sake of the development of Hexi, although Hexi's agriculture has developed over the years, but on the whole, compared with others, it is not half a star. Faced with this situation, Lao Deng naturally needs to think about it.
and Lao Deng is sixty-two years old this year, and if he doesn't make progress, he will basically wait until he is sixty-five years old, that is, this is the end of it. Imagine that Lao Deng is a person who feels good about himself, will he be able to stand it? Seeing Yu Yang so angry, Ye Tianxiong smiled, and then slowly analyzed.
What Deng Zhiyuan did during this time, he didn't think others knew, but Ye Tianxiong saw clearly the other party's purpose early, that is, he wanted to strive for enough political achievements, and take this opportunity to go further, otherwise, his political career would be over.
As soon as he heard Ye Tianxiong's analysis, Yu Yang thought about it carefully, is it really like that? This old Deng's age is really approaching, and if you don't work hard at this time, there is probably no hope for going further. It's just that if you want to improve, you can't, but you can't make any stupid moves. Today's matter, in Yu Yang's opinion, Lao Deng made a big stupid move, and if it didn't work well, Lao Deng would step down early.
