The first question is, what is genetically modified food? It refers to food produced by using animals and plants that have been genetically modified.

Second question: Benefits of genetically modified foods: 1. Generally, genetically modified foods are less harmful to pesticides. For example: ① Soybeans resistant to the herbicide glyphosate generally have extremely low herbicide residues, which are generally much lower than those of non-GMO soybeans. ② Insect-resistant genetically modified corn or genetically modified rice, etc., can reduce the amount of pesticides on a large scale, and of course their pesticide residues are lower. 2. The cost of large-scale intensive cultivation of almost all genetically modified crops is much lower than that of non-genetically modified crops, so the price of genetically modified soybeans is lower than that of non-genetically modified soybeans. ① Use less pesticides. ②Save manpower. The second benefit here is particularly important to our country. It is the prerequisite for intensive planting and the direction of large-scale agriculture now. Nowadays, all the younger people in the rural areas have gone to work in the cities, and the left-behind elderly people in the rural areas can no longer work as they did when they were young. Therefore, it is inevitable that thousands or tens of thousands of acres of land in remote rural areas will be abandoned. ——In many places in our country, farmers secretly plant genetically modified crops. This is an inevitable trend of social development, and no one can stop it. 3. Most foreign genetically modified rapeseeds are low in erucic acid, while most domestic non-GMO rapeseeds are high in erucic acid. Everyone knows that erucic acid is definitely harmful to human health. 4. Argentina and other countries have rapidly increased their agricultural income due to their liberalization of the cultivation of genetically modified crops, and have become typical agricultural product exporters. 5. In November 2015, the United States approved the commercial cultivation of genetically modified salmon, and explicitly allowed genetically modified salmon and its processed products to be used as food for Americans, not just as fishmeal. ———This is the world’s first commercially bred genetically modified animal. Don't believe the low-level rumors like "Americans don't eat genetically modified foods."

The third question: GM rumors are flying all over the sky now, don’t believe them or spread them. my country does not allow the illegal cultivation of genetically modified crops and requires that genetically modified foods must be labeled. However, there are so many real benefits of genetically modified crops, which means that there will definitely be illegal cultivation and secret sales without labeling. It is just like the state prohibiting official corruption. Who can really prohibit it? This is not a fault of national policy.
