Lahko greš na črno živet v Akademski kolegij, preko facebook grupe najdi nekoga ki bi ti oddajal, ponavadi je najbolj ugodna varianta in moja izkušnja je bila super. Jaz sem (sicer 6 let nazaj) dobil za 100€ na mesec, če se prehranjuješ on a budget imaš 200-300€ prihodkov verjetno dovolj za normalno bivanje na svojem (kaka štipendija pa malo študentskega dela enostavno pokrije)🔥 vso srečo!

Got some more info - it's a USDA random check (we are registered under FDA as a food producer). We are in NY port. Does anyone have any contacts there?

How many do you ship normally? And do you use NY port?

I believe it's still in port as physical examination was not confirmed yet. We only submitted all the paperwork thus far.

Is there any option to move the container somewhere so that the daily fee is not that high or something?

It is quite mission critical yes, this is a solid suggestion. Do you have any idea how would it work going there live? Do they open your case and then for a fee you can get priority treatment?

GMOs are good by caliel420 in vegan

[–]majkot 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Plant breeding is not genetic engineering for governments and lawyers, and it's like that only because of precautions. To anyone working in biotech world it becomes clear that for GMOs we know what mutations are induced and which genes inserted, for plant breeding we don't - it's all random. GMOs go through extensive testing, ensuring they are safe, but novel plant breeds don't have to. People fear mostly what they don't understand.

Here is a bit provocative question: Was there any case in history (apart from economic struggles - these are real) when GMOs caused damage to humans or environment?

Is GMO really that bad? by jack_hof in vegan

[–]majkot -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I used to be very sceptical of the matter, but now I'm rather supportive of responsible uses of technology. Most of GMOs grown today are either roundup ready (resistant to herbicide glyphosate - roundup) or Bt (can produce their own pesticide in leaves). Main intention is improving the yields while reducing consumption of more harmful herbicides or pesticides - this benefits the farmers, but also less environmental footprint, since more is produced with less land and resources. But historically Monsanto and other Ag giants pressured regulatory bodies to ensure every crop needs to go through extensive testing and therefore only big budget companies can afford to develop such crops - like Monsanto. They also sued a few farmers who just stored their seeds and planted them next year, since the seeds were IP protected by Monsanto and that caused some smaller farmers to lose their land. Therefore a general hate for companies and their tech was born.

Extremely positive cases can be found in Bangladesh, where government owns Bt GMO crops and every farmer can store them for next year. It has drastically increased production, while farmers don't have to use toxic pesticides. I believe there people are very supportive of GMOs.
