Fuzhou, Fujian yet found genetically modified rice banned sales lead

Privately cultivation, processing and sale of genetically modified rice and processed products are the property offenses. Reporters learned yesterday, the province authorities are issued to strengthen supervision of genetically modified rice, prohibit the sale of genetically modified rice, the file is already in the department countersigned stage. Fuzhou Food Bureau, the Municipal Food Industry Association said yesterday that, as of now, has not been detected in Fuzhou genetically modified rice, has not received complaints from the public about genetically modified rice.

The province took the lead banned

GM rice is the use of gene technology to produce processed rice products, the community there is a dispute on safety and potential risks of genetically modified rice.

Reporters from the provincial and municipal grain bureau was informed that genetically modified rice production of transgenic required to obtain a security certificate issued by the Ministry of Agriculture, and by the variety examination, obtain a permit seed production and seed business license before they are allowed to enter commercial production. So far, China has not yet tissues of the transgenic rice varieties identified, has not been approved genetically modified rice entered commercial production. Privately cultivation, processing and sale of genetically modified rice and processed products are the property offenses.

In view of this, the relevant departments are countersigned by the province in the "Notice on Strengthening the supervision of genetically modified rice" requirement, non-procurement of genetically modified rice (rice) as a grain or a grain supply policy. Suspicious of genetically modified rice, to organize sampling, inspection.

Reporters learned that the province is also the nation's first banned the sale of genetically modified rice in the provinces.

Whether genetically modified or not to the naked eye

"This matter has been meeting for six months." Provincial Food Bureau of the person in charge of Industry Management Department, said the province of genetically modified rice very seriously, but GM rice by the naked eye can not distinguish, more or supervision of manufacturers, wholesalers source to strengthen but now the wholesale market can not do Pipi detection. Reporters learned that more than ninety percent of rice from the market in Fuzhou City grain wholesale market.

Fuzhou Food Bureau Supervision Department, at the industry stakeholders, as well as president of City Food Industry Association, Wang Qihan were yesterday told reporters that so far has not been detected in Fuzhou genetically modified rice, we have not received complaints from the public about genetically modified rice.

Yesterday, the reporter visited Fuzhou south road over the water and drum screen supermarkets and found that each brand of rice are all marked only the name, date of manufacture, origin and price, whether or not labeled "genetically modified", and the supermarket bulk rice, the only the price, even the production date at all.

Many customers are selecting Rice told reporters that usually buy rice and less concerned about whether genetically modified, to see the shape, price, promotion supermarket to buy rice than more. One customer said that what is genetically modified rice is genetically modified not to eat, or not eat non-genetically modified, she did not know.

Reporters learned that the public can not distinguish with the naked eye gene transfer rice, to identify whether genetically modified only by the department, this, many people also want rice manufacturers can label on the packaging whether or not genetically modified, giving consumers the right to know.

Transgenic and hybridization

Hybridization only between species of the same species and close relatives were, and transgenic technology can transfer genes between different organisms. Even artificial hybridization, genetic nor break the laws of nature. But through transgenic technology, scientists can transplant a gene from one organism into another organism, recipient organism so that some special traits, genetically modified organisms are created in the laboratory of life, past millions of years, never in Earth appeared.

sound

Government should be especially careful approved the commercialization of transgenic plants. Because Currently, scientists still can not fully predict the organisms are genetically modified to have the mutation may lead to what might cause harm to the environment and humans. Although the experiment is very mature, but the impact of GM foods on human cause, perhaps to appear until after the next generations. Our rice expert Yuan Longping (Guangdong)

News Background

Why genetically modified rice to shout "stop"

Situation had detected large foreign supermarket stores

According to media reports, this year from May to June, the international environmental organization Greenpeace sampling in Wuhan, Shenzhen, Dongguan and Foshan four cities shows that Wal-Mart stores in Wuhan Xudong Avenue "domestic rice" samples were positive transgenic. This is the second time sampling of the organization to Wal-Mart's stores sell genetically modified rice.

In even earlier in 2005, the organization also found an illegal genetically modified rice would flow into a foreign-owned hypermarkets in Wuhan, Hubei Province.

Harmful effects involving biodiversity and food sovereignty

According to experts, the transgenic rice and ordinary rice could be more compared to the nature of waterlogging, drought, pest resistance, etc., but also increase the protein content. But the dispute over community safety and potential risks of transgenic rice, transgenic research even though even the most advanced countries, the United States also explicitly prohibit genetically modified food on the table.

Greenpeace believes that the impact of transgenic rice environment and biodiversity, may lead to more pesticide use, serious secondary pest problems and so on, and transgene may be more vulnerable to climate change, on this basis, genetically modified food long-term safety unknown, in which the baby may become high-risk groups. In addition, China's rice gene transfer involves a number of foreign patents, once commercialized, it might happened to the food sovereignty of our country.

It is traceable origin can be found in Hubei and Hunan

Some media said that to be investigated according to the production of China genetically modified rice, mainly in Hubei and Hunan, because the genetically modified rice production process itself is not open, the flow is a non-transgenic rice mixed flow, therefore, illegal sale of genetically modified rice retail is difficult go traceability responsibility. Therefore, the best is the business in commodity procurement process, strict monitoring mechanism to prevent genetically modified rice into the supermarket.
