As for your #agricultural #products :

* we do not want #Genetically #Modified #Organisms #GMO
* we do not want #chlorine #chickens or #growth #hormones #meet

#Thanks , but #NO #thanks

Almost 30 years ago, in 1996, #genetically engineered #seeds were commercially introduced in the US for key field #crops, with #adoption rates increasing since then. By now, over 90% of US #corn, #cotton & #soybeans are produced using #GMO varieties: https://www.ers.usda.gov/data-products/adoption-of-genetically-engineered-crops-in-the-united-states/recent-trends-in-ge-adoption #plantbreeding

Graph showing the adoption of genetically engineered crops in the United States, in percent, from 1996 to 2024, showing a quick increase in the first years, until wide-spread adoption was reached by the 2010s, with herbicide soybeans reaching a maximum of 96% in 2024.

As for your agricultural production, we do not want to eat #Genetically #Modified #Organisms #GMO, so thanks but no thanks. No orange haired #mutants please. Neither #pesticides, thanks.

We are also keen on " #Europe #First", or our #nations first, i.e. being #independant
Because we are already great !

A concept very difficult for you to understand , apparently

This is just another pretext to harass your (best) friends

Trump-Era Rule On #Genetically #Engineered #Crops Tossed
A California federal #judge on Monday vacated a 2020 Trump-era rule that a group of #agricultural and #environmental organizations alleged significantly reduced #government #oversight over genetically engineered #crops grasses and trees, granting the groups a partial summary judgment win due to the U.S. Department of #agriculture inadequate explanations for the #rule [via email from Law360]

Odri is a member of an extraterrestrial species who were originally human but - in the distant unremembered past - were modified into floating telekinetic beings whose bodies are "recharged" by advanced bio-pods.

They have vague cultural memories of Earth as a distant homeworld, but were unaware that their species had been changed until arriving there.
It may not be possible to prove when or why they were changed.
This species does not have a single accepted name, given that their word for themselves is also used for the residents of Earth.
The remaining members of the species were sent "back in time" to the present day by powerful forces, in what is likely a long-term attempt to strengthen Earth as a potential ally.

They arrived in the early 90s, which triggered a wave of spaceship-themed music videos, such as "Larger than Life" (Backstreet Boys), "Say What You Want" (Texas), "Scream" (Michael and Janet Jackson), and "You'll Be Sorry" (Steps).
Neither Odri's people nor Earth currently have any contact with other extraterrestrials, nor the ability to communicate at the great distances required.
Odri was born after her species arrived on Earth.

Her name is a traditional name among her people and is probably descended from the name "Audrey".
Most members of Odri's species still live on their spaceships. (Odri currently lives in the college dorms.)
Odri is part of a group of talented technicians that maintains the bio-pods; they have the technology to build new ones, but the process is very slow, and reverse-engineering them is not yet possible.
Odri is about 20 years old, and is attending a state university in the U.S.

Special scholarships are available for extraterrestrials from universities who hope to attract unique talent.
Odri's people originally had a religion which taught that the prophet they were looking for was on another planet and was not yet revealed to them.
The more Odri floats, the sooner she will need to "recharge".

Odri also needs to sleep, like a regular human, but she can do so while recharging.
Odri cannot eat food, but does need to drink water.

Has there been any #GeneticStudies about the #Anatidae family, mainly as in, how close are #Ducks #Geese #Swans #Shelducks etc related to eachother #Genetically ?

Having #children earlier in life is #genetically linked to #dying younger
An analysis of over 270,000 people's #genomes has found that people with #genes linked to having children earlier in life are also more likely to die before the age of 76. “It’s because natural selection largely cares about reproduction,” says Jianzhi Zhang at Univ of Michigan. “So those #mutations that are beneficial for #reproduction, but may be detrimental afterwards, would still be selected.” https://www.newscientist.com/article/2406998-having-children-earlier-in-life-is-genetically-linked-to-dying-younger/
