What is genetic modified foods?
Genetically modified food can also be achieved by altering their DNA (or genes) by genetic engineering techniques. This usually involves inserting a gene into the organisms' DNA to create a certain trait. For example, some corn crops have been genetically modified so that they become more resistant to herbicides and insect pests. In most countries Genetically Modified foods (GM) as well as foods containing GM source foods have to be labelled by law, giving consumers the choice to use them or not. Agriculturally speaking the opposite of GM foods are "Organic" crops.
What is one negative environmental impact of using genetically modified corn?

Is coRn syrup made with GMO corn?
Yes, corn syrup is often made from genetically modified (GMO) corn, as a significant portion of the corn grown in the United States is genetically engineered for traits such as pest resistance and higher yields. However, not all corn syrup is necessarily made from GMO corn; some products may use non-GMO corn, but it's essential to check the labeling for confirmation. Overall, the prevalence of GMO corn in the agricultural system means that most corn syrup is likely derived from GMO sources.

What is the Canadian government's action on genetically modified food?
Canada has been one of the four countries that were most known for commercial production of genetically modified canola, cotton, maize and soybeans. The other three countries have been Argentina, China, and the United States. The government approves use within Canada of all genetically modified products that are like real food, and that aren't dangerous if consumed. But the government won't approve labels that differentiate, for the customer, between food that's gmo-free and food that's not.
What percent of US corn is genetically modified?
First you must specify whether you mean GM foods that are modified by gene replacement in the lab or by selection and hybridization. Because of the stigma given GMO's by pseudo scientists there are very few directly grown, non processed GM foods. Almost all soybeans grown in the US are GMO and most of the corn and canola. Sweet corn, however, is not GM, but it's a hybrid. Growers must use herbicides to control weeds because there is no GM seed to do it.
