Mexico's Deputy Agriculture Minister has stated that Mexico is currently waiting for the United States to provide evidence that genetically modified (GM) corn is safe for its people. This development comes amidst ongoing discussions and concerns regarding the importation of GM corn from the US into Mexico.
The issue of GM corn safety has been a contentious topic in Mexico, with various stakeholders expressing differing opinions on the matter. While some argue that GM corn can help increase crop yields and address food security challenges, others raise concerns about the potential health and environmental risks associated with genetically modified organisms.
