Exclusive: China rejects U.S. corn cargo, citing GMOs | Reuters: "(Reuters) - China has rejected a cargo of U.S. corn after finding it contained an unsanctioned genetically modified strain, two sources familiar with the situation said on Friday.
'China only allows 11 varieties of GM corn to be imported to the country, and the cargo was found with GM material outside the 11 varieties,' said one source, who declined to be identified.
'The animal and plant quarantine department has barred it from entering China,' the source said. He said it was supplied by a Japanese trading house."
