China is a big consumer of edible oil, and it is also a big country lacking edible oil. Every year it needs to import more than two-thirds of the total amount of edible oil from abroad. The soybeans, peanuts, rapeseeds, sunflower seeds and other crops traditionally produced in China are high-oil crops that can be directly used to extract oil. However, due to the invasion of genetically modified soybeans, consumers have to face the new problem of genetic modification when purchasing oil products.
The harm of genetically modified soybeans to Chinese agriculture and farmers With the wide application of genetically modified soybeans in Chinese oils and fats, Chinese consumers have become experimental products of genetically modified soybeans in foreign countries. Because the value of peanuts, rapeseeds, sunflower seeds, etc. have not been fully reflected and nurtured, genetically modified soybeans continue to invade China's edible oil market, and it has caused tremendous damage to China's agriculture and farmers.
1. GM Soybeans caused the phenomenon of “difficulties in selling” by Chinese farmers due to the impact of genetically modified soybeans. In recent years, farmers in our country have had difficulty in selling soybeans, selling oilseeds, selling peanuts, and selling sunflower seeds. Difficulties.
The soybean planting scale in China is relatively small. Even in Heilongjiang, where land resources are abundant, the scale of professional farmers can only reach about 150 mu. In contrast, the scale of soybean farm production in the United States, Brazil, and Argentina far exceeds that of China, and the cost of soybean planting is much lower than in China. Compared with the complete planting cost, the soybean planting cost in China is 33% higher than that in the United States. The soybeans grown in the United States are basically genetically modified soybeans. Most of them are exported to China, and are mainly used as soybean salad oil, followed by soybean milk and soybean meal.
Science shows that the domestic soybean oil export rate of 16-17%, while the export of genetically modified soybean oil is generally 19-22%, a difference of 2-3%. Soybean oil output is 1% for every one percentage point difference.
The difference in effectiveness is 15 million yuan. Affected by this shock, China's "Golden Bean" has become a "crocodile bean," and Chinese bean farmers have long piled up old beans, making it hard to find a way out.
China is the main producer of soybean, peanut, rapeseed and sunflower seeds in the world. Soybean is mainly produced in the three northeastern provinces and North China. Peanuts are mainly produced in most areas along the Yellow River in Shandong, Henan, Hebei, Anhui, Liaoning and Xinjiang. The rapeseed is a South China producing area centered on Hubei, Hunan, Sichuan, Guizhou, etc. Sunflower seeds are produced in North China. With incomplete statistics, there are more than 200 million peasants growing oil in China, accounting for the area of ​​arable land in China.
1/4 or more.
It can be seen that China is a big producer of oil crops. At the same time, because China has a large population, it is also a big demand for oil. However, there has been a strange phenomenon. On the one hand, China's farmers produce large quantities of oil crops. On the one hand, China has imported a large amount of genetically modified soybeans. As China's oil and fat raw materials, China's domestic oil industry has gradually shrunk, and it has become increasingly difficult for farmers to sell oil.
For example: Guizhou is a big province of rapeseed production in China. This year's output reached 760,000 tons, but at the same time when rapeseeds harvested a large area, the farmers frowned. Because the price of rapeseed this year is lower than last year, for this reason, they will earn 400 million yuan less, and many farmers still have a backlog of last year's rapeseed. Rapeseed is a major income for many peasant families in Guizhou. Along with the difficulty of selling oilseeds and rapeseeds for Chinese farmers, it is difficult to sell soybeans, sell peanuts, and sell sunflower seeds, forming an interlocking reaction and a vicious cycle.
2. It is even more alarming for the oligopoly to cause serious crisis in China's agriculture. The multinational companies accelerated the pace of acquiring domestically-funded edible oil companies in 2005. The real intention of such a large-scale acquisition is not to make profits through processing, but to form an oligopoly and ensure the smooth flow of soybean exports to China. In their words: “We need to spend 80% of our investment on destroying our opponents and 20% of our investment on cooperation.” Any unbiased person will notice that domestically owned soybean processing companies have started to become multinational companies one by one. Monopoly of the soybean market in China monopolizes the situation. This situation is very similar to the monopolistic process of the Indian pepper industry. The unthinkable consequence is that once the domestic-funded enterprises in the soybean producing area are destroyed, the industrial chain of domestic soybeans will be torn, and the soybean industry in China will inevitably shrink rapidly due to lack of leading players. The rest will be many helpless farmers. If transnational companies fully control the soybean industry in China, the value of non-genetically modified oil produced in China will not be highlighted, and they will be forced to compete with genetically modified oil at the same level. Under such circumstances, our country will be completely controlled by the situation of people in terms of pricing, processing, and marketing. What is more worthy of alarming is that there are hidden dangers in the safety of genetically modified foods. Some authoritative departments abroad have disclosed that a number of western countries have formulated a series of systems that prohibit the inflow of genetically modified foods and prohibit consumption by nationals. However, they have resold these genetically modified raw materials and foods to China in large quantities, allowing them to become testers of GM foods.
We can see that due to misleading oligopolies and public opinion, a large number of genetically modified soybeans have flooded into our country, making it difficult for China's oil production to meet the market's huge demand. American Soybean Association predicts: "The next decade,
China needs more soybeans and soy products than the United States. This is undoubtedly a wake-up call for us. If we do not increase soybean production significantly in the next few years, we can only continue to rely on imported GM soybeans. If multinational corporations form a monopoly on China’s soybean imports, they will not only destroy China's soybean industry will directly threaten the country’s food security, which is by no means alarmist.
Eighty percent of the right to speak of the soybean market in China is controlled by people. If this situation is not reversed as soon as possible, the consequences will be disastrous.
3. Impact of genetically modified soybeans on China's edible oil industry After the genetically modified soybeans were introduced into China, most of them entered edible oil processing companies with foreign investment as the background and processed them into small packages of salad oil. Although this kind of oil has residual gasoline, due to its low price, it can attract the attention of some Chinese consumers. Some domestic edible oil processing enterprises in China, such as Heilongjiang Jiusan Oil & Fats Company, Guizhou Great Wall Oil Company, and peanut oil processing companies represented by Shandong Luhua, use non-genetically modified soybeans, rapeseeds and peanuts produced by local farmers. The traditional pressure technology is adopted, and its oil products have the advantages of safety, nutrition and health. At the same time, however, they also have the disadvantages of high cost and high price. Under these circumstances, genetically modified oil products are trying their best to control public opinion, blur the harm of genetic modification, and change the inferiority status of genetically modified foods. As China's vigilance against genetically modified soybeans is not high, targeted publicity is not enough, resulting in a difficult operation of domestic edible oil manufacturing enterprises. There are three small-scale edible oil companies in Guizhou, of which two have suffered industry losses all year round. Another Guizhou Great Wall Grease Company was forced to scale up to 300 tons per day this year due to lack of production last year. Last year's rapeseed purchase price completely deviated from the market principle. At 2.80 yuan/kg, the cost per ton of refined oil was about 6600 to 6800 yuan/ton, and last year's refined oil price was up to 6,400 yuan/ton.
The more profitable the production, the more it will be. Under the control of the price of genetically modified soybean oil, the profitability of China's oil companies has dropped sharply and the business has been in trouble. At present, only Shandong Luhua has achieved a large scale of operations and has managed to reduce production costs and sales costs by doing everything possible. This has yielded better benefits and has doubled the price of peanuts in the Yellow River Basin within three years. But this can only be counted as a special case of our national edible oil processing enterprises.
From the above, it can be seen that the large number of GM soyabeans influx into our country has great harm to our country's agriculture, farmers, national industry, and the country's food safety, and should cause serious alarm for our government and people.
Responses - Rejection of "dependent development path"
To find out the crux of the problem, we should take targeted measures to resolve the crisis. Our main idea is to work hard to avoid the "dependent development path" as some countries in South America, to establish our own independent edible oil raw material base and cultivate and expand local edible oil processing enterprises. Further increase the threshold for the import of genetically modified raw materials so as to benefit the majority of farmers in China.
1. Limit the import of converted soybeans.
From the perspective of protecting human health, the status quo of the importation of large quantities of genetically modified soybeans is curbed. Since the safety of genetically modified foods has not been scientifically determined in the world, our government has successively introduced a series of policies such as [Agricultural Genetically Modified Organisms Safety Management Regulations], [Agricultural Genetically Modified Organisms Safety Evaluation Management Measures] and Others. These policies have played a certain role in the suppression of the importation of genetically modified foods. However, judging from the actual situation in our country, these policies are far from enough. We are already a member of the WTO. The WTO Agreement on Agriculture allows member governments to take appropriate measures to protect human health and the safety of animals and plants. As a result, we can flexibly use the "Safety Management of Agricultural Genetically Modified Organisms" to implement supportive policies such as taxation and science and technology for domestic-funded enterprises using domestically produced oil as raw materials, so that they can improve their ability to survive and develop and have the ability to feed back to our farmers. Improve China's agriculture and farmers' market competitiveness. For enterprises that use imported GM soybeans as their raw materials, they may consider increasing the approval of import procedures, increasing the import costs of these companies, and widening the spreads between genetically modified soybeans and non-genetically modified domestically produced oil, and protecting domestic non-genetically modified raw material production areas. China's non-GM oil competitive advantage. At the same time, a unified national mandatory labeling system is implemented for all aspects of the circulation of genetically modified agricultural products in the market. From the perspective of the EU, Japan, and South Korea, this can largely inhibit the market demand for genetically modified soybeans, which in turn affects the production, processing, import, and sales of genetically modified soybeans.
2. Increase the role of public opinions and promote the development of non-genetically modified products in China According to China's existing national conditions, it is necessary to develop an educational campaign for the safe use of edible oil for all people.
The potential safety risks of genetically modified oils and fats should be vigorously promoted, the safety and nutritional value of non-transgenic oils should be promoted, and the essential differences between genetically modified oils and non-transgenic oils should be distinguished. In China for a long time, public opinion reports on genetically modified products have only focused on the issue of labeling. However, they have not paid more attention to the potential threats posed by the genetically modified oil to domestic industries in various fields and the hidden dangers to human survival. . This situation must change.
It is suggested that public opinion circles in China should bear the brunt of the problem. We must continuously report on the issue of genetic modification, gradually infiltrate the knowledge of genetically modified products into the ideology of consumers, and vigorously publicize the high value and safety of non-GMO products in China on the basis of national interests and moral values. Comprehensively analyze the value differentiation between genetically modified and non-GM products, so that consumers understand the natural quality of non-genetically modified crops is the green consumption of healthy families, promote consumption concepts of safety, nutrition, and health, fundamentally change the consumer's Consumption habits and behaviors. Only in this way can we fundamentally protect the interests of Chinese farmers.
3. Implement policy support to protect local non-disturbing industries.
For a long time, due to the fact that the country did not pay enough attention to genetically modified foods and the lack of policies on non-genetically modified industries, the oil industry in China has long been in a weak position. Even some rights departments have also rated several genetically modified edible oil brands as national brand names, which has further increased misleading consumers and caused the oil industry in China to worsen. Given this, when we call upon China to formulate relevant policies, we must proceed from the great interests of the country and the nation, and use policies to vigorously support the non-disturbing industries so that they can continue to grow and grow, so that Chinese agriculture and farmers can survive in a safe and healthy environment. development of.
