Genetically modified food or crops are plants that have been modified using genetic engineering techniques. Examples of GMO’s include adding genes to certain crops to make them immune to insects or environmental conditions. In 2015, France joined 16 other European countries and used new EU rules to ban the cultivation of genetically modified crops. Opponents of a GMO ban argue that it is killing the crop biotech sector causing France to fall behind international competitors in agricultural innovation. Proponents of the ban argue that the risks related from GMO foods have not been properly tested.

No, but we should abolish genetically modified foods.
Yes, but only in countries that require these crops as an aid product
@8YWLGN72yrs2Y
Yes, but producers should not be able to patent seeds and it should require labelling of foods that are genetically modified.

Yes, fully labelled like advertising and in controlled growing so there is no accidental cross breading on the lands of others.
@8PN6M4Z3yrs3Y
Yes and no only if their grown in lab greenhouses with heavy monitoring and heavily test them to see if they're adequate and if they have a negative impact or destroy biodiversity also so the won't interfere with other crops also increase biodiversity in food sector
@8PJHVJN3yrs3Y
No, ban genetic engineering, GMOs cause cancer and Monsanto is evil and needs to go
