A media article from Reuters recently noted that China was closer to commercialising genetically modified (GM) maize and soya beans. It stated that “China has approved 37 GM maize seed varieties and 14 GM soya bean varieties, taking it close to commercial planting of GMO maize and soya beans.”
This is not the first time China has made headlines about its path towards the potential commercialisation of GM maize and soya beans for domestic cultivation.
