In the end, how many genetically modified foods are currently in China? According to the China Youth Daily, genetically modified foods that enter the Chinese food chain have exceeded 20 million tons. It is reported that at present, China rarely produces genetically modified foods such as grain and oil crops, and only some transgenic insect-resistant cottons do not enter the human food chain.
The large-scale production and commercialization of genetically modified crops in the world took place around 1996, and China's import of genetically modified 'products began from this time. In 1996, China imported 80,000 tons of genetically modified soybeans and other crops. It soared to more than 2.8 million tons in 1999, reached 7.5 million tons in 2000, and exceeded 10 million tons last year. In just five or six years, imported GM crops have grown more than 100 times.
In fact, recent inspections conducted by inspection and quarantine departments show that most of the soybeans, canola, and corn imported from genetically modified countries in China are genetically modified products.
On the table of the Chinese people, which foods are most likely to be genetically modified foods? Experts pointed out that the top three are: soybeans, corn, and rapeseed. China imported 15 million tons of soybeans last year, which is equal to the number of non-genetically modified soybeans produced in China. At present, soybeans imported from China are mainly used as processing raw materials to produce soybean oil, tofu, soy milk and other products.
Can genetically modified foods be eaten? Expert explanation
China has stipulated that GM foods should be clearly labeled from March 20, 2002. But until today, genetically modified foods in the domestic market have only been marked in a few cities such as Beijing, Shanghai, and Guangzhou. Many people do not know which GM foods are on the table.
