Transgenic Foods

International corporations have been producing for years a large amount of herbicides for soy producers use. This presents an incovenience for these producers. The large dosages began to affect the soy plant.

These same herbicide production companies, to solve this problem start to produce genetically modified seeds (soy) that had more tolerance against the herbicides.

A DNA extract or a genetic chain of a flour (petunia), a virus and a bacteria (Agrobacterium Tumefaciens), a plant cancer causing parasite, were all  added to the traditional soy seed
This parasite genetic material, with the help from a promotor, produces the mosaic coliflour virus, a soy protein that has never before been included in a human diet. The farmer will notice how the transgenic soy remains intact while the previous one is exterminated by the chemicals.

The market has a toxic corn against worms, their most traditional plague; many tomatoe varieties have fish genes implanted in order to prolongue their life in the supermarkets; beets have recieved other fish antifreezing that will allow them to resist very low temperatures.

Genetically treated foods have been received very negatively. Biotechnology companies argument will improve the environment by modifying vegetables into plague poisons and changing seedīs genetic designs in order to make them  easier to cultivate. This will therefore calm the worldīs hunger. Salmons three times larger are available and hormones that multiply cows milk production also exist.
