fineboynl:I live in Russia. I do not π eat genetic animal. I only use my hard earned money to buy meat specifically GMO free π meat. Nobody forces you to unknowingly consume GMO food in Europe. As legislation mandates GMO food to be appropriately π§ͺ𧫠labelled .so if you preferably choose to feed your family genetic animal & GMO food, it's your choice. Russia is even kinda more totalitarian & more dictative tendencies than UK, Germany, and western Europe normally. If GMO food is detected in the shopping π mall, during food drugs administration raiding, the supermarket owner can be arrested . That's why Food labels are essential 2 Likes

Re: Nigeria Approves Commercial Release Of GM Maize Varieties by Truthshscrazy: 11:54am On Jan 13 |
fineboynl:Yes it is Banned. Just as POTASSIUM BROMATE BREAD π is banned π« in Nigeria but after NAFDAC approval with clean unpolluted samples, Some bread people consume today , still secretly contains potassium bromate in Nigeria market. It takes regular suprise impromptu NAFDAC raids to fish them out. So it is in Russia in eastern Europe/Asia aka Eurasia. GMO is banned. Normal European union countries, all food with GMO up to 1% must be π§ͺ labelled . In shopping π mall, U will see Chicken π labelled GMOfree π, chicken labelled organic ,chicken labelled Containing GMO. SO YOU WILL BE THE ONE DECIDING WHAT TO FEED YOUR FAMILY WITH. IF YOU WANT TO FEED THEM GMO FOOD & MEAT lN EUROPE, ITS YOUR CHOICE. unlike some countries where it is voluntary and not mandatory to label any food containing π§ͺ GMO. Russia is kinda more dictative and authoritarian, in chicken section or food section in Russia, over 80% food in the market from top brands & producers are labelled GMO FREE. NO GMO CONTAINED. Non-GMO food is more readily available in russia unlike normal western European country. That it's like 50:50. Only once or twice l came across lab π§ͺ grown meat appropriately labelled. I nor even bother use my hard earned money buy . Just as l won't use my money to buy GMO chicken π when l can buy non gmo or better still, organic chicken instead. infact l can swear almost 90% food in Russia shops almost everything in Russia federation is labelled GMO free π. So if Food drugs administration is conducting occasional raids in π shops , & food is lab π§ͺ tested & gmo found, Shop owners & food suppliers/producers can be ARRESTED & treated like terrorists 1 Like

DaddyJapan:The Federal government of Nigeria has approved the commercial release of transgenic insect-resistant and drought-tolerant maize varieties, known as TELA maize. The new maize varieties are drought tolerant and are resistant to stem-borer and fall armyworm resulting in a yield advantage of up to 10 tonnes per hectare under good agronomic practices. The national average for similar hybrids is 6 tonnes per hectare. The varieties are suitable for Rain Forest, Guinea, and Sudan Savannas. 1 Like 1 Share |

[quote author=fineboynl post=127920365][/quote] Listen, even in one of the most artificial biotech lab grown food countries on earth, the USA πΊπΈ, l know health conscious people who only buy certified organic meat from organic farmers market in USA. Some people who are very well enlightened patronise only grass fed cow ππ meat , & they don't mind shelling a few extra bucks. Chicken is not genetically modified per say according to USDA. It boils down to their feed, whether they are fed GMO meals, raised in overcrowded places Vs pasteur freeRange or farm raced with wide spacings, laced with Antibiotics, pesticides , chemicals, chemicals supplements, FAST GROWTH HORMONES, or if an animal has been fed pumping Steroids ETC. which are dangerous overtime when they build up in the human body. Even when some of these pesticides & chemicals are washed up into the water π bodies, they pollute the Environment & fish water bodies, making them lethal & unfit for consumption. Most producers are in for fast profit not minding the greater costs on health of populace , 10years down the line. lf you are concerned with how the chickens you consume are raised, most developed countries in every region, in every major city, have tested ethical certified organic producers brands and local farmers which you can patronise instead.

[quote author=fineboynl post=127920365][/quote] They don't eat all these shitty chicken in Russia my friend. Poultry farmers here adhere to health rules. All commercially available chicken meat are bred with traditional and anti-GMO standards. Besides why are you showing me an American illustration of GMO in America (that has been available on the internet for donkey years) when we are talking about Russina? |
