Mexican president confident Congress will ban planting GM corn in 2025
MEXICO CITY - Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum expects Congress to approve a ban early next year on planting genetically modified corn in the country, she said on Saturday.
A GM crop contains genetic material that is not naturally found in the plant, for example to better protect against disease. Farmers have widely adopted such crops in some countries such as the United States, but critics say their safety for human health and the environment is unproven. Mexico's economy and agriculture ministries said in a joint statement that they disagreed with the ruling, but would respect the decision. The agencies later said the panel's report referred exclusively to trade between Mexico and the United States.
