孟山都公司在中国
中国是大豆的原产地,拥有世界上已知野生大豆品种的90%,共超过6000多种。大豆也是中国最早食用和种 植的粮食之一,栽培历史有4000多年。直到现在,中国仍然是世界上大豆的生产国之一。但是,孟山都公司正 在对中国大豆申请一项专利。这项专利源自对中国上海附近一种野生大豆品种的检测和分析,他们从中发现了与控 制大豆高产性状密切相关的基因。它利用这一野生品种作为亲本,与一栽培大豆品钟杂交,培育出含有该基因的大 豆。他们还为它申请专利,保护所谓他们发明的“高产大豆”,并且还提出几十项专利保护。这种局面意味着:专 利和专利保护一旦被批准,中国农民和育种专家在不知道的情况下,就已经侵犯了他们的专利,中国的有些大豆产 品甚至因此无法出口,并导致国际贸易制裁。这样的基因研究在实质上是把原本属于全人类的财产变成私有财产。 种子那种古老的逻辑已经被现代资本主义取代了。所以,必须抵制。
China is the origin of soybeans, the world's known species of wild soybean 90% of over more than 6000 kinds. Soybean planting is also China's first food and the food is one of 4,000 years of cultivation history. Until now, China remains the world's soybean producers. However, Monsanto is a patent application on soybean. The patent stems from a wild near Shanghai, China, detection and analysis of soybean varieties, from discovery and control of their soybean yield traits closely related genes. It uses the wild varieties as parents, with a bell hybrid cultivated soybean products, soybean bred with the gene. They also applied for patents to protect their inventions so-called "high-yield soybean", and also made dozens of patent protection. This situation implies: patents and patent protection, if approved, farmers and breeders in China do not know the circumstances, had violated their patents, some soybean products in China can not even export, and lead to international trade sanctions. In essence, this genetic research is to become the property originally belonged to the private property of all mankind. The logic that the ancient seeds of modern capitalism has been replaced. Therefore, we must resist.
