In recent years, there is a topic that has been hyped up by the common people, that is, genetically modified crops. In fact, since ancient times, various grafting technologies and various cultivation methods for crops have emerged in an endless stream, and the current transgenic technology is just an effort made by scientists to make human beings have enough to eat. However, because genetically modified crops have been promoted in recent years, it has attracted everyone's attention.
To be honest, genetically modified crops can be vigorously opened to the outside world, but whether to publicize it or not is another matter. On January 23, in view of the operation of the rural economy, a director of the Ministry of Agriculture, Director Pan, said that it is now necessary to vigorously promote the pilot operation of genetically modified crops, especially genetically modified corn and soybeans, to carry out industrialization, and promote to 5 provinces and 20 counties.
The five provinces mentioned above are Inner Mongolia, Sichuan, Yunnan, Hebei and Jilin. After this press conference, crop-related companies in the five provinces were issued licenses to get started with the promotion of genetically modified crops. In fact, genetically modified crops are nothing more than to let the whole people eat enough and let Chinese no longer worry about eating and drinking, but why are there so many discussions?
Moreover, in these discussions, there are still the majority of opposing voices. Let's not look at why everyone opposes it, let's first understand why experts want to promote genetically modified crops? Some experts said that genetically modified crops are necessary for the future, because China is a province with a large population, and with the increasing degree of urbanization now, China is getting rid of the identity of a large agricultural country.
If food begins to become scarce by then, then all kinds of unhealthy food will develop into a black industry, and as long as there is something to eat, everyone will not choose. In order to ensure food health and food security, genetically modified crops are a good solution. Genetically modified crops are not made by various chemical agents, but are obtained step by step through the research of experts, which is healthier than those grown with catalysts.
Now China needs to import grain from abroad every year, and in 23 years, it has increased by 11 percentage points year-on-year, and it will inevitably continue to grow in the future, and soybeans are the main force in imported grain. In short, now Chinese want to eat, relying only on Chinese grain is far from enough, so we have to engage in genetically modified crops, especially genetically modified soybeans, because 60% of imported grain is soybeans.
Because of climate and land reasons, China's land is not so suitable for large-scale soybean cultivation, so it is necessary to use genetically modified soybeans to ensure China's demand in this area. In addition, even through genetically modified crops, the quality of crops will now be guaranteed, whether it is taste or yield, it is in line with our current needs. Another reason is to expand our food reserves in advance.
According to the safety value of food reserves released by the United Nations, it is about 18% more than the demand for food, and China's current grain reserves are actually much higher than this value, so why do you still want to promote genetically modified organisms so vigorously? That's the most important reason, and that's cheapness.
Genetically modified crops are different from our traditional planting, it can be industrialized, once a thing begins to be mass-produced, through the mode of the factory assembly line, it means that the product will be very much, and even reach the phenomenon of oversupply, then the ** will naturally decrease.
If we can bring down the grain and attract other countries to buy our grain, then in the long run, it is equivalent to grasping the lifeblood of other countries. Because if other countries are accustomed to buying food from us and gradually lose the ability to cultivate themselves, then as long as the country is suddenly not implemented with food**, the country will face a food crisis.
For ordinary people, the most concerned is why Westerners don't eat genetically modified food. Every day advertises how good GM is, healthy and affordable, why don't Westerners vigorously develop it? This point cannot be explained at the current level of the author, and even if it is put to the United Nations, it cannot be discussed.
Because genetically modified crops are a new industry, it will take time to prove. No matter how you make your remarks now, they are not convincing enough if they are not proven by events. One day, when Westerners face a food crisis, perhaps they will know how important it is to have food that can be mass-produced and healthy to eat.
After all, Westerners are not like the Chinese, who eat everything, and of course, we also eat everything in moderation. They don't eat animal offal, they don't eat the rhizomes of many vegetables, or they don't eat the leaves, they don't eat all kinds of things, and they have a good reputation for health. But our ancestors have taught us how to eat, and how to sustain it. GMO, naturally there will be time to prove it, what do you think?
