Internal reference of transgenic lecture

Introduction: on January 20, 2001, the seminar on genetically modified regulations hosted by the soybean branch of China Chamber of Commerce for import and export of food, soil and livestock was held in Taiwan Hotel Director Chen Jingen of the agricultural genetically modified products office under the Ministry of agriculture of China made a speech and answered your questions Director Chen first made a half-hour speech and gave a brief introduction to the background of GM Subsequently, the traders present at the meeting gave warm questions on the topics of concern The main core issues are as follows: (1) qualitative and quantitative analysis of genetically modified products: Director Chen determined that genetically modified soybeans would adopt qualitative and quantitative analysis, that is to say, as long as the national testing instruments detect that there are genetically modified ingredients, they will be defined as genetically modified products, and safety certificates must be applied for and correctly identified (2) Application fee collection: Currently, the fee is not determined and is under study (3) Whether Brazilian soybeans can come in: traders at the meeting proposed that Brazilian soybeans will not be able to enter China if they are not quantitative and qualitative Director Chen would not comment on this, but would like you to study the Ordinance (4) Simplification of procedures: Director Chen determined that if the genetically modified soybean is safe, the soybean oil and soybean meal produced by the genetically modified soybean can simplify the application procedures by relying on the copy of the safety certificate of the genetically modified soybean when applying for the safety certificate Similarly, a copy of the safety certificate of the same genetically modified soybean can be provided at the next application to simplify the application process (5) U.S response: Director Chen said that he hopes the matter can be smoothly transited, and there will be no last situation that led to the intervention of President Bush (6) As for whether the soybeans to be delivered before March 20 need to be labeled, director Chen said that it is a transitional period, which needs to be studied D52 (7) soybean delivery and marking of Dalian Commodity Exchange: Director Chen basically avoided this problem Basically, most of the issues at the meeting have not been answered directly, especially those that have a direct impact on trade in the coming months From the current situation, the United States is expected to pay close attention to the results of the implementation of China's genetically modified regulations At that time, Cargill's representative also said that the United States is likely to mention it again at the China US summit D52
