Extraordinary Genius

Chapter 1821 Genetically Modified Foods

Leaving Zhang Ruiqiang, Feng Yu turned around and entered another compound not far away. Lu Xiao works here.

At this time, Lu Xiao seemed to have stabilized a lot, perhaps because of his age, or because of his status, he was no longer as exaggerated as Feng Yu was when he first met him.

When Feng Yu came in, Lu Xiao put down his pen, turned off the computer monitor at will, circled out of the back of the desk, and pulled Feng Yu to sit on the couch.

“I changed units, and you finally came to see me.” Lu Xiao smiled and said.

“Hahaha, you've changed your unit a little too diligently. I'd like to come, but I've been a little busy lately. ”

After Feng Yu thought Lu had gone down to the place, he should have done so in the place for one or two years. How could he know that he had not done it for two years? He returned to the clothing committee.

But this time, how did Lu Shao get to such a unit? Food and Drug Administration ~ Bureau, does this Lu have any experience?

Feng Yu seriously doubted that it was because of such a vacancy that Lu Shao's home made the effort. He stuffed Lu Shao in, so he did it for two years, and then went down to the place, which is the proper sealed Jiang Dazhang.

As for Lu Shao's experience, this person doesn't care at all. He doesn't need Lu Shao's front-line testing anyway. What he does is administrative work.

“Just in time for you to come, I have something else to ask you.” Seeing Feng Yu come, Major Lu felt that he couldn't get this right. Perhaps Feng Yu knew how to solve it. After all, Feng Yu had been to so many places, he had more insight than he had.

“You've heard of genetically modified crops, haven't you? Transgenic cotton, transgenic corn, transgenic soybeans. ”

Feng Yu heard these words and asked somewhat hesitantly: “What, is the country planning to vigorously promote GM crops? ”

If it's just a cash crop, then Feng Yu thinks it doesn't matter and can produce more cotton, which is a good thing. But cotton seed oil, what about this?

And corn and soybeans are used as food crops at this time. This GM product is consumed. Although there is no clear proof of hazard, who knows how long this hazard is incubated?

“Genetically modified cotton, which we have been promoting domestically for a long time, is now grown in our country. The vast majority of cotton, which is genetically modified, is BT cotton, which is a pesticide. ”

“Now is not the time for us to eat, should we vigorously promote genetically modified maize and soybeans, genetically modified crops, which do produce much higher yields and have higher oil output rates? ”

“Let's just say, if we're all genetically modified soybean oil, then the price of regular soybean oil is nearly halved, which is affordable for many people, right? ”

Feng Yu looked at Master Lu: “What are you hesitating to do? ”

“It is not yet a question of the safety of this transgene. We have also organized a number of specialists to conduct research experiments that have not been found to be obviously harmful to human beings. ”

However, many experts said that it was not possible to prove that there was no harm to the human body, and that even people wanted to recruit volunteers to experiment, or simply to experiment on their own. They insist that the safety of food cannot be guaranteed once the protein traits have changed. ”

“What do you think of the fact that you've seen so much and you've been running around the globe all these years? Outside the country, what do you mean? ”

Feng Yu asked with a smile: "So would you like to eat genetically modified soybean oil? ”

Lu Shaoxiang chuckled: “If there are non-GMOs, why should I eat GMOs? ”

“Still, you're worried about yourself. Whether experts have demonstrated results or not, they are short-term and have not undergone long-term experiments. Many conditions have long latency periods, which are not detectable at all in a short period of time. ”

“And those developed countries, they barely eat genetically modified foods. Don't you see anything wrong with them developing genetically modified food crop seeds and selling them to less developed countries for profit? ”

Lu Shao's eyes widened: “Is genetically modified food really a problem?! ”

“I don't know.” Feng Yu shook his head, "but since he couldn't be sure of his safety, let's just pretend it wasn't. If it can be avoided, I think it's best to avoid it as much as possible. Otherwise, the real problem is the big problem. ”

“Although non-transgenic production is low and oil production is low, you can rest assured. As for how to explain it to the people, it's not that hard. ”

Lu Shao was curious. They didn't think of a good solution for so long. Did Feng Yu think of this now? Even if Feng Yu is a genius, there is no demon ~ sin to this extent?

“Young Master Lu must know how to make soybean oil by pressing and leaching, right? A lot of people have doubts about chemical leaching methods and think that there are residues that can harm the body, so after a while, the state stipulates that oil pressed and leached should be clearly labeled on the bottle, a suggestion that I made. ”

Originally, Taihua selected oil, but it was sold from the northeast to South Cantonese, and later merged into Beidahua, a brand that exported to many countries.

“Are you saying that labeling the bottle is genetically modified oil and leaving it to the people to choose? ”

Feng Yu nodded: “Yes, according to the available technical research materials, it is published to the public. Let them know the difference between transgenes and non-transgenes. If you really don't have the money, can you eat GMO soybean oil, at least better than you can't? ”

“My suggestion is that it would be better if we also ban the cultivation and promotion of genetically modified foods, and that we strictly prohibit them from being deliberately mixed for money. ”

“As for genetically modified food, we can import it from abroad. Even if it were imported into us, it would still be cheaper than non-GM prices, after all, with much higher yields. ”

“There are things that there is absolutely no need to hide, telling people directly that people in developed countries don't eat genetically modified foods, but there is also no proof that eating must be harmful to the body, allowing them to make their own choices, which is better than helping them make their own choices. ”

Lu interrupted Feng Yu's words: “Wait, no, you just said let the people make their own choices. Why did you let me ban the cultivation and promotion of genetically modified foods? Didn't we make a choice? ”

Feng Yu asked with a smile, “So don't you think it's forbidden? Does this really have that much impact on the lives of the people, though it will increase the price of cooking oil? ”

“If the future proves that this is really harmful, do you mind going? Even if it proves to be harmless, how much can it cost us? ”

Huaxia is much richer than it was in previous life. Huaxia was also less affected by this financial crisis. Spending a few dozen more dollars a month on bean oil is not much of an impact on most people. Many people still eat more expensive peanut oil.

Lu Shao bit his teeth: “You're right, I want to follow up on this. This genetically modified food can't be planted in our country in the future! ”
