A piece of wild soybean can trigger heated discussions among netizens. Why? Because we expect it to turn things around, instead of serving as a wedding dress for other countries in vain!
Ecology of Sihong County, Suqian, Jiangsu During their daily inspection, environmental protection workers were attracted by a patch of green plants. When they got closer, they saw that they were wild soybeans.
Wild soybeans are not too rare in rural areas. Many netizens living in rural areas have seen them. The problem is that in many cases they are regarded as ordinary weeds and are directly removed with pesticides. In fact, they are weeds in our country. Class II protected animals.
Some experts said that wild soybeans are a very rare breeding resource. You must know that Yuan Longping’s major progress in hybrid rice started with a wild rice!
We in Soybeans It is true that I have suffered big losses in the past.
From the beginning of the last century to the present, the United States has been continuously searching for soybean resources from all over the world, especially paying special attention to our country, which has a history of soybean cultivation for more than 5,000 years. A large amount of wild soybeans are sent to the United States through various channels. The United States currently has 20,000 soybean resources.
In 1998, Monsanto of the United States launched a new generation of genetically modified soybeans. Herbicide-resistant genes were embedded in the soybean genes, and the original soybeans came from my country!
In 2000, Monsanto of the United States introduced a new generation of genetically modified soybeans through mutual gifts. They obtained a wild soybean in my country. They successfully extracted disease resistance and high-yield genes from this soybean. After registering the patent in more than 100 countries around the world, they in turn collected patent royalties, including our country!
The most unforgettable thing is the battle for soybeans that took place in 2003-2004. The U.S. Department of Agriculture, Wall Street financiers, and the four major grain giants joined forces to operate soybean futures, causing a large number of soybean crushing companies in my country to face bankruptcy. The four major grain companies took the opportunity to acquire them at low prices, directly controlling 70% of my country's soybean crushing companies.
Since then, our country has paid special attention to soybean resources and has achieved phased results.
Of course, soybeans are not the only seeds that get stuck.
Many seeds of some high-end fruits and vegetables come from abroad, such as tomatoes from Hazera’s Summer Sunshine and SVTM4224 from the United States; carrots from France’s Hongyu No. 6, and spinach from Japan’s 029 and Germany. 175.
These countries sell these seeds to our country at extremely high prices and make huge profits. Tomato seeds like Summer Sunshine once reached 10 yuan per seed! What is the concept? 1,000 tomato seeds only weigh 2-3 grams, and the price is comparable to gold!
Shouguang, Shandong Province, the hometown of vegetables in my country, alone Tomato seeds alone cost 70 million to 100 million yuan! When they are expensive, the cost of seeds for one acre of land for farmers is more than 2,000 yuan, and almost all farmers have to work for a seed company.
Thankfully, our country has long recognized the importance of seeds, and has elevated industries such as seeds and chips that are easily stuck to the level of national strategy.
Although great success has been achieved so far, there is still a long way to go!
