    To combat any genetically modified food, India can abolish the concept of seed patents, where these seed companies had exclusive rights to sell a GM seed without competitors. If you take the patent away, you take away the entire economic model for these companies, and competitors can create generics. Basically modelling India's pharma industry.

      Yes Trem, if you do away with patents, competitors can compete and eliminate an incentive for anyone else to innovate. Do you believe that India has no need to innovate? I live in America, where something like 1% of the population grows food. We also have 4.3 times as much land as India, with 4.3 times fewer people. So Indian agriculture needs to be 18 times as efficient to give it the same food prosperity as the US. If you put a brake on innovation, you condemn your country to be perpetually poor.
      You are also, at the same time, overestimating the advantage patents give to innovative companies companies in India. When the first GMO plant, BT cotton, was introduced to India, the seed company with the patent had to spend year after year proving the safety, and after successful data every year, the Indian government still asked for more and more tests, never allowing the company to sell a single seed. After more than ten years, a competitor stole some of the GMO cotton seeds and hybridized them with its own variety, and illegally sold them. The success of the competitor's seeds, in a year when cotton farmers were overwhelmed by pests, led to the revelation that the competitor without a patent was able to sell seeds that the innovative company obeying the law was forbidden to sell.
      And after almost twenty more years, India has still not approved a single other new GMO seed type. The innovators of GMO brinjal never made a penny from their patent in India, while farmers in several other countries are legally planting the patented GMO brinjal and liking it.

    India doesn't need gm seeds instead needs increase in area under cultivation and good soil quality along with better management of the crop. The govt needs to educate the farmers and provide subsidy to ensure sustainability of natural farming.

      I am commercial mustard breeder and as far as i understand there is no need for this tech. as private companies has more potent technology... Secondly farmers should focus onfarm resources and minimise the input from the outside sources.. especially fertilizers.... And regarding subsidy gov. is already helping farmer by providing 2500₹ bag of urea in 270 ₹.. and thats needed in tonnes plus there is small incentive by PM kisaan yojana... As well as local polices for subsidy to promote farmers to invest and grow particular crop for diversification and mixed farming...

    In general, I feel that if yield reducing and yield limiting factors can be overcome by improved management and maybe even breeding methods, we should focus on that. Genetic modification has its role as a research method to enhance our understanding of underlying processes of plant growth, physiology and so on but beyond that it should be used judiciously. I realise however, that this isn't a fully formed scientifically rigorous opinion and is therefore unpopular (hence also open to discussion). And am I the only noticing that the paper at 5:26 talks about the degradability of the protein from GM maize in dairy cows (at least in the title) when the claim made is about BT-brinjal?
    Anyway, I would personally push for more research and data collection on management strategies like crop rotations, integrated pest management and nutrient management measures to close the yield gap

    • @charlesmrader
      @charlesmrader 2 года назад

      Right after that is the ridiculous claim that the Bt toxin in Bt brinjal is toxic to all organisms. That's total nonsense. You could eat the Bt "toxin" by the kilograms and it would just be a nutritious protein, not toxic at all. Right after that in the video is the claim that Bt toxins have been found in pregnant mothers and in foetuses exposed to Bt foods. Right away my bullshit detector rings an alarm. Pregnant mothers and foetuses? Why not also in truck drivers and fighter pilots? We are supposed to react with alarm to anything that would harm foetuses and pregnant women. Actually, the quoted paper found short protein fragments of the Bt toxin, along with short protein fragments of every other protein they were exposed to. Short protein fragments are proteins nearly completely broken down to simple amino acids, fragments small enough to pass from the intestines into the blood stream. They aren't toxic.
      This whole section of the video is completely unrelated to the mustard - just there to connect GM mustard to any other fear of GMO foods.

    If you listen very carefully to the video's reasons to fear GM mustard, there's nothing really there. Something is not a danger just because someone says it is a danger. A plant developed twenty years ago is very unlikely to be a threat to honey bees. Anyone can say that it "might be" a threat, ignoring the evidence that it is not a threat, which is one of the first and easiest things to certify.
    A big deal was made about the "dangerous herbicide". The GMO mustard is herbicide tolerant. If India decides, for any reason, to prohibit herbicide use in some set of cases, there's no reason why a herbicide tolerant mustard would have to be exposed to the tolerated herbicide. The GMO herbicide happens to be herbicide tolerant, but it would still facilitate hybrid development without the use of a herbicide.

Look at the statistics for age-adjusted cancer, all types, from 1975 to 2018 (last year I can find). Cancer rates increased dramatically from 1975 to 1992. Beginning in 1993, cancer rates began to drop. They have dropped dramatically every year since then. But the entire time that GMO foods were in the US food supply began after 1992.
      I'm sorry I don't know about autism and allergies with the same precision. But every GMO crop approved in the US (and in other countries) must first be proven to not cause allergies, and nobody has ever shown a case of an allergy cased by a transgenic food. As to autism, the only relationship ever shown is a graph showing the number of cases of autism, by year, compared with the number of pound of glyphosate by the same years. Now I could remind you that correlation does not imply causation, but I can do better than that. During the last thirty years, the collection of symptoms that are considered autism have been changed, so that people who were not considered to be autistic in 1995 would be considered autistic today. If you plot autism cases versus time after correcting for the change in definition, the curves are not similar at all.

The government is taking the right measures to improve crop productivity and effective yield. You can't dismiss every potentially good thing because someone is instilling fear and doubt in gullible minds that are steeped in ignorance.
    Long term impacts need to be studied...agreed. But we got to start somewhere right? And we can address the issue when there is an "alarming" situation.

GEAC required the developer to do test after test, year after year, without any test ever detecting a problem, more tests year after year, until finally an Indian seed company stole the seeds from the developer and sold them secretly and illegally. The next year, there was a bad infestation of pests and it was immediately evident that the GMO cotton in certain fields was resistant to the pests. When the government tried to destroy the illegal cotton crop, it pushed cotton farmers past the threshold of patience and the Indian government was forced to finally approve the crop variety.

    The dangers of GM crops stated in this propaganda video are about as accurate as the misspelling and wrong pronunciation of the of the herbicide Glufosinate Ammonium) (see 4:57 in the video). Americans, Canadians, Brazilians and Argentinians have been eating GM food for over two decades without any demonstrable adverse health effects. In fact, GM crops undergo much more extensive scrutiny to ensure health and environmental safety by the govt. regulators compared to the chemicals that people so readily accept and use. The question people should be asking is how is India going to feed 1.4 billion (and growing) population with little to no arable land left and serious effects of climate change already beginning to impact agriculture. No doubt plant breeding, hybrids, agronomic management practices and yes, judicious use of chemicals will help. But why should India reject the GM technology which is as revolutionary, impactful and based on the same basic principles as as the insulin used by the diabetics or the DNA/RNA-vaccines against Covid that are saving millions of lives. Moreover, genetic engineering methods continue to undergo improvements and now we have the means to minimize or even eliminate the use of transgenes and even modify a crop's native genes in a precise manner.

      ​@@ankurtripathi903going against nature is not about working hard, it is foolishness... We are already seeing the results of the so called Green revolution that happened in 1960s... Yield is not everything... Sustainable agriculture is the way to go

      No govt or researchers have helped farmers... They have only filled their pockets and helped agro industries to grow in the name of the farmer and their graves.

      @ankur tripathi It will be a disaster.GM seeds are useless,they have no nutrients plus all the royalty goes to Europe.We need to do what we were doing for thousands of years.

    Yes it is good to try out new things , trials will let us know results for these. India does need better yielding GM seeds , the world is already using them & reaping gains. Questioning is good but don't be a spoiler or naysayer.

    No, I don't think Indian continent need GM crops.

      Genetically modified crops are hugely important to Brazil's food system and its economy in general. Brazil is the second-largest producer of biotech crops in the world with 104 events approved and 53 million hectares planted in GM crops, primarily soybean, corn and cotton. 2:31 [Alliance for Science]

    A big and misleading part of this video is about the danger to honeybees. I'd like to explain why this is so misleading.
    First, the supposed danger is that the honeybees, if feeding on mustard plant pollen, won't find any pollen from the GMO mustard plants.
    That's half true, but irrelevant. Why is it half true? Because the purpose of GMO mustard is to facilitate hybridization, which is the process of crossing two different pure lines of mustard to produce hybrid seed. One of these two pure lines will not produce pollen, and when that pure line is fertilized with pollen from the other pure line, the resulting seed on the pollen-free pure line must be exclusively the desired hybrid seed which is desired. It follows that half of the GMO mustard used for hybridization will produce ordinary pollen.
    Why is it irrelevant? Because of all the hybrid seed of a particular hybrid variety, only a few plants are grown for the hybrid seed. The individual pollen-free parent produces around 10,000 hybrid seeds per plant. So, about 0.01% of the mustard plants will be pollen free.
    One has to wonder whether the maker of this "documentary" knew and understood this?

    GM mustard में उद्पादन अधिक नहीं आ रहा , और यह सेल्फ पॉलिनेट हैं हमारी मधुमक्खी मर जायेगी , आगे कॉटन के GM होने से नुकसान हो रहा है
