In the face of genetically modified food, how to meet the citizen's right to know?

Since
the
of transgene technology, the controversy
the
of biosusables has been difficult to reach a consensus. Behind all kinds of genetically modified rumors, there are more people's doubts and worries. We should be concerned about, in the face of
MOD food
how to protect citizens' right to know, so that people can see, eat clearly, this is also a basic premise of GM science work.
some of the comments that the national government from top to bottom on genetically modified crops, food is not so deep, the truth is so? It is understood that in January 2019, the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs issued the 2019 Programme of Work on the Supervision of Agricultural Genetically Modified Organisms (hereinafter referred to as the "Programme"). The program emphasizes six key regulatory links, such as research and testing, southern breeding testing, variety identification, production and operation, import processing, and label management, covering the whole process of research and application of agricultural genetically modified biotechnology.It is worth noting that the program requires that in the marking management process, in cooperation with the market regulatory authorities to do a good job of GM labeling supervision, in accordance with the agricultural GMos labeling directory and the "Agricultural GMO labeling" (Ministry of Agriculture No. 869 - 1 - 2007) requirements, strict marking scope, strict inspection of the marking methods, fully meet the public's right to know and choose.
reporter learned that China's genetically modified products according to the catalog qualitative mandatory marking system. In 2002, the Ministry of Agriculture issued the Measures for the Administration of The Identification of Agricultural Genetically Modified Organisms, formulated the first batch of labeling catalogues, and made strong identification of 17 types of GENETIC products in five categories of soybeans, rape, corn, cotton and tomatoes sold in the People's Republic of China, and other genetically modified agricultural products can be voluntarily labeled. Since the publication of the first labeling catalogue, China has approved the cultivation of only cotton and papaya, approved the import of processing raw materials for soybeans, corn, cotton, rape and beet 5 crops.
understood that more than 40 countries and regions have formulated relevant laws and regulations, requiring genetically modified organisms and their products to be labeled management, in order to protect consumers' right to know and choose. For the management of genetically modified labels, there is no unified management model in the world, and countries have established their own management systems according to national conditions.
International management of GM labeling is mainly divided into four categories: first, voluntary labeling, such as Canada, etc.; Ingredient content above the threshold must be labeled, such as Japan regulations on tofu, corn small food, natto and other 24 kinds of food made from genetically modified soybeans or corn need to be labeled, the threshold is 5%;
compared with other countries in the world for GM labeling management system can be found that no country in the world like China to adopt qualitative mandatory labeling by catalog. All genetically modified organisms and their direct processing products included in the Ministry of Agriculture's Measures for the Administration of The Identification of Agricultural Genetically Modified Organisms should be labeled in accordance with the provisions in order to fully guarantee the public's right to know and choose.
