GM food

It sound technologies, but many people are worried about the upcoming impact.

For those who are new, GM is stand for "Genetic Modified" where the food engineering

technologies is heavy debated in West. GM food were in the market in 1990 where the genetic of

tomato's were modified to stand rot. It's sound good.

After that, the soybean plant were announced succeed in its genetic modification which the plant

able to stand pesticed. People who in "mass balance" came to woried because a question is

actually appeared "where the poison goes?".

For me the plant is actually still holding certain amount of poison, but the only thing is that, the

modified plant had increase its retention time or maybe increase its poison storage.

From my point of view, the food technologies is good only in certain term. For an example, rice

were found rich in betacarotine is good. It will decrease daily cost of buying food because

term"richness of health" in one food is appeared.

The researchers of food technologies have intrested to this area because, they assumed that food

crisis can be solved in future. The pricipal were very easy, "less disease to plant, more food can

be generated and stored" but for me it is some time will go wrong if the technology disobey

human of nature.
