Introduction
  • The population graph has consistently gone up
    with the years, and with it has increased the
    need for food. This has resulted in a demand for
    more growing of crops which is where GMO
    practices come in.
  • These practices provide a higher yield of crops
    and better resistance to pests. But, the people
    remain skeptical about the quality of such crops
    which is why they should undergo GMO testing
    which will ensure their quality.

Genetically Modified Organism Certificate
  • Many sellers might sell their crops as GMOs for a
    higher price and by faking their buyers.
  • To avoid such scam and confusion, the government
    has made it compulsory that all GMOs have to go
    through testing to get a certificate.
  • Only such a certification will allow it processed
    food to be released in the market.

Prevention of the mixing of GMOs and non-GMOs
Different governments have different rules and
regulations when it comes to the usage of GMOs.
Some allow its usage like the United States,
while others have banned it. While GMOs and nons
might get mixed for fraud purposes, the same can
happen unintentionally. Thus, all food products
have to go through a screening process which will
determine whether they are GMO or not. This will
prevent the mixing of the two types of crops.

For exporting
  • Many countries like Australia, New Zealand, etc.
    have many exporting businesses that export GMOs
    to other countries. But, to allow exporting, they
    need to get a test report which will serve as
    permission.
  • The test report determines the quantity and
    presence of GMO protein in the sample provided
    from the product. This, in turn, is displayed on
    the label of the products and makes the customers
    aware of what they are buying and consuming.

6
Competition against non-GMOs
The entire purpose of GMO is to process a better
quality of the produce. This definitely puts them
at a higher place when compared to non-GMOs,
resulting in more demand from the public. This
creates competition against the
non-GMOs. Therefore, it is important to get GMO
testing done for all crop-growers to prove that
their crops are GMOs. This, in turn, will make a
profit for them.

Others
  • GMO testing in UAE ensures that there are no
    disagreements between the customer and the
    seller, and, in case of any, are resolved quickly
    enough. The customers are also at an advantage to
    make a choice between GMOs and nones which
    improves their decision-making.
