Illegal genetically modified papaya has flowed into Shenzhen to sell papaya nine as genetically modified

A few days ago, a reporter learned from the Shenzhen Municipal Center for Disease Control and Prevention that since 2009, the number of genetically modified papayas on the market with anti-maculavirus genes has been steadily increasing. Today, these genetically modified papayas account for as much as 90% of the local market. However, many of them are illegal varieties that have entered the market without proper safety certifications or import approvals from the Ministry of Agriculture. The issue of illegal genetically modified papaya has raised concerns, especially after reports surfaced that such products have already reached Shenzhen. Members of the National People’s Congress have called for stricter oversight to ensure food safety. According to Deng Pingjian, director of genetic research at the Shenzhen Municipal Center for Disease Control and Prevention, genetically modified foods have made up about 5% to 10% of the city’s food market over the past decade. These include products like soybean and corn oils, as well as peanut and cottonseed oils. The Ministry of Agriculture has approved five categories of genetically modified crops: soybeans, corn, tomatoes, cotton, and rapeseed. Both domestically produced and imported GM foods must first obtain safety certificates and commercialization approvals before being sold. Despite this, illegal genetically modified papayas have been found in both small shops and supermarkets across the city. Experts believe they may have come from Southeast Asian countries like the Philippines or Malaysia, or possibly from Hainan. The source remains unclear, but the presence of these unapproved products raises serious safety concerns. The Shenzhen Agricultural Science and Technology Promotion Center has established a special monitoring station to conduct random checks on genetically modified foods. Any illegal products found will be removed from shelves. However, experts point out that no specific department is currently responsible for regulating GM food safety nationwide, even though the Ministry of Agriculture oversees research projects. At this year's municipal conferences, several deputies, including Suoxing, proposed measures to strengthen supervision and improve regulations for genetically modified foods. Their suggestions included clearer policies, defined responsibilities, and better transparency in the production and labeling of GM products. Recent surveys conducted by the Shenzhen Municipal Center for Disease Control and Prevention revealed that over 90% of citizens do not accept genetically modified foods. As one expert noted, people should have the right to know, choose, and enjoy healthy food options. In the U.S., genetically modified foods are more affordable, but in China, consumer awareness and concerns remain high. Experts also emphasized that while the government has the technology to detect genetically modified organisms, it is crucial to ensure that only legally approved GM products reach the market. Unregulated imports pose a significant risk to public health. Deng Pingjian added that although GM crops cannot be identified visually, laboratory tests can detect foreign gene segments in any crop. This ongoing issue highlights the need for stronger regulation, greater transparency, and public education on the safety and implications of genetically modified foods. (Reporter: Zheng Si)
