Recently, some media reported that the “Xianyu 335” corn seed developed by DuPont Pioneer Co., Ltd. may be genetically modified corn. Due to the consumption of “Xianyu 335” corn, animals such as the disappearance of rats and sow miscarriage occurred in Shanxi and Jilin.

Agriculture experts told the First Financial Daily yesterday that GM technology has become highly sensitive in China. For the “Yuya 335 Incident,” the Ministry of Agriculture should take the lead in organizing appraisals and evaluations, giving people a scientific explanation. This is not only DuPont Pioneer Co., Ltd. is responsible for China’s own research on genetically modified technology.

Regarding the suspicion that "Xianyu 335" is a genetically modified corn, a breeding expert who participated in the certification of "Xianyu 335" in that year said: "I'm present at the time of the approval of Xianyu 335, and the whole process of trial and trial During the process, it was not discovered that it was a genetically modified variety, and no negative impact was found.The United States is sensitive to GM technology and is very cautious. It will not easily violate China's laws. In particular, a world-class seed company such as DuPont Pioneer, has faked their company. It is unfavorable.” A person from an environmental organization also told reporters that he has not yet mastered the “Xianyu 335” as a material for genetically modified corn. Pioneer DuPont denied the allegations in an earlier public statement.

In 2005, DuPont pioneered the promotion of “Xianyu 335” in the Chinese market after the approval of the variety. Due to high production, good commercial properties, and uni-grained technology, “Xianyu 335” has been greatly affected in the major corn producing areas such as the Northeast and North China. welcome. In Jilin City, Jilin Province, a person who sells the “Xianyu 335” seed industry company told the reporter that “the output of Xianyu 335” was 1100 to 1200 pounds per mu, and other varieties did not have such a high yield; “Xianyu 335” has good commercial property. In the neat and uniform grain, the moisture content of corn is 2~3% lower than that of general varieties, and it is very popular among grain storage and processing enterprises. The price per catty is 1~2 cents higher than that of general varieties. This year, the market share in Jilin City rose from zero to 60% to 70%.

From a national point of view, Song Xieliang, vice chairman of Liaoning Dandong Denghai Liangyu Seed Co., Ltd., introduced that if the “Xianyu 335” deck is added, its planting area in China is expected to reach 40 million mu, which will account for market share. About 10%. Liu Shi, who was responsible for DuPont Pioneer China's corn seed business and the current president of Longping Hi-Tech, commented on the rumors of Xianyu 335: “About the Xianyu 335, the pigs ate for a long time and the chickens did not lay eggs. The rumors that no children were born had already appeared in Fuyu County in Northeast China in 2006 and 2007."

The above-mentioned seed sellers believe that most of the corn in Northeast China has yet to be harvested. The sale of the new “Xianyu 335” seeds will not start until December of this year. It is rumored that the sales of “Xianyu 335” will not be immediately hit; in addition, farmers need It is the seeds that can bring about high yields and good commercial quality. At present, there is no better substitute variety for the “Xianyu 335”, and there is no concern for the GM varieties.

Agricultural experts pointed out that DuPont Pioneer did not declare whether there was genetic modification in Xianyu 335 at the time when the original variety was approved. Now after several years of large-scale promotion, there is suspicion of the “Xianyu 335” in the society, whether true or false, in order to correctly guide Public opinion should be led by the Ministry of Agriculture to investigate. He said: "The decision whether or not the genetically modified organism must pass the genetic testing agency designated by the Ministry of Agriculture does not exist in any city or county."

Earlier, the Shanxi Provincial Department of Agriculture conducted an investigation on reports of animal abnormalities caused by Xianyu 335, pointing out that the “Xianyu 335” corn variety is a hybrid variety identified through national breeds, not a genetically modified variety; the relevant pigs were reported in the report. Abnormal phenomena such as sheep and rats are not in accordance with the facts."

An agricultural expert said: "The 'Yuxian 335 Incident' will not only affect the US DuPont Pioneer Company. It will have a crucial influence on the direction of our own genetically modified research and the development of the agricultural industry. The State Council, the Ministry of Agriculture and the Ministry of Science and Technology are very Emphasis on biotechnology, especially the Ministry of Science and Technology has also made major special projects for genetically modified technology. If this is not done well, public opinion will lead to mistakes and it will also have a negative impact on China's future biotechnology industry and high-tech agriculture."
