In both crops, recent transitions to sourcing sugar from genetically modified seed is tainting the sweet product and causing even more concern about its consumption and impact on our global food systems.<\/p>\n<p>GMO sugar beets dominate U.S. production\u201495% of all sugar beets now grown in the U.S. are GMO\u2014and with 55%-60% of all U.S. sugar derived from sugar beets, many of those chocolate bars are filled with GMO sugar. Now, <strong>GMO sugarcane is being commercially grown in Brazil<\/strong>. The world\u2019s largest sugarcane producing country approved GMO cane, developed by Centro de Tecnologia Canavieira (CTC), in 2017. The GMO sugarcane is genetically engineered with the Bt gene to resist the cane borer insect, responsible for $1.5 billion in annual losses to domestic producers.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>GMO sugarcane is being commercially grown in Brazil, who just announced plans to double the transgenic sugarcane<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>The first harvest of the crop was in 2021; Brazil just announced plans <strong>to double the transgenic sugarcane<\/strong> acreage to 173,000 acres in the 2022\/23 crop cycle, up from 91,400 acres last year. Despite the increase in acreage, GMO sugarcane will only account for about 2% of Brazil\u2019s total sugarcane acreage of 9 million acres.<\/p>\n<h3>GMO sugarcane: &#8220;False expectation for the future of agriculture&#8221;<\/h3>\n<p><strong> Leontino Balbo Jr.<\/strong>, executive vice president at <strong>Nat\u00edve Green Cane Project<\/strong>, a producer of regenerative organic sugarcane, says GMO sugarcane is &#8220;<strong>bad for the environment, soil and human health<\/strong>&#8220;. According to Balbo, 50% of Brazil\u2019s sugarcane farmers use agroecological methods to control pests but many may abandon those methods because proponents of GMO sugarcane are claiming it will solve their problems. &#8220;GMO sugarcane will bring temporary results. They are creating a false expectation for the future of agriculture. It\u2019s a trap&#8221;, he said.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;They are creating a false expectation for the future of agriculture. It\u2019s a trap&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Balbo points to the experience of Brazil\u2019s grain farmers with GMO Bt corn as an example of the narrow-minded approach of GMOs. &#8220;Bt corn was effective initially but after 2-3 years farmers had problems. Now they are using biological controls (to eliminate pests)&#8221;, he said. Sugarcane producers are influenced by the experience of grain farmers. &#8220;I think the enthusiasm that grain producers have for biological controls will influence sugarcane producers&#8221;, Balbo said. &#8220;They are a reference for technology to adopt&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>Balbo\u2019s <strong>regenerative organic sugarcane production<\/strong> is already producing the results that CTC is promising with GMO sugarcane. &#8220;We have a 1.5% infestation (of caterpillars). The average in conventional fields is 8%. CTC is promising growers that GMO sugarcane will guarantee an infestation of 1.5% to 2%. By natural means I am getting the infestation that CTC is promising. They are 25 years late&#8221;, he said.<\/p>\n<p>Fortunately, <strong>there is no threat of contamination threat from GMO sugarcane seed<\/strong>. The sugarcane plants are not pollinated by seeds, which are sterile, Balbo said. Nat\u00edve Green Cane Project produces regenerative organic sugarcane on nearly 50,000 acres and supplies one-fifth of the world\u2019s organic sugar and exports it to 64 countries.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Fortunately, there is no threat of contamination threat from GMO sugarcane seed<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<h4>Non-GMO verified sugar options available<\/h4>\n<p>One threat posed by increasing GMO sugarcane acreage\u2014as happened in the U.S. with sugar beets\u2014is that food producers may need to scramble to find sources of non-GMO cane sugar that hasn\u2019t been tainted by Brazilian GMO cane. &#8220;They won\u2019t know if it\u2019s GM or not, because at this time there is no infrastructure for segregating the non-GMO and GMO sugar supply, the way there is for organic&#8221;, said <strong>Hans Eisenbeis<\/strong>, communications director of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nongmoproject.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>Non-GMO Project<\/strong><\/a>. &#8220;Until now, we\u2019ve been able to say cane sugar is non-GMO across the board, because there was no GMO sugarcane. Now we may have to consider adding it to our \u2018high risk\u2019 category of ingredients&#8221;.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;The refining process makes GMO material not detectable. Some manufacturers may volunteer the information on their label but they\u2019re not required to&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><strong>If sugarcane goes on the &#8220;high risk&#8221; list, it could stimulate production of non-GMO sugar beets<\/strong>. &#8220;Our best option is to influence the public and the food industry to ask for segregation of a non-GMO supply&#8221;, Eisenbeis said. &#8220;We\u2019d love to see the same segregation with conventional non-GMO sugarcane as we\u2019ve seen with organic foods. For sugar beets, which are easier to grow in temperate climates, it would be great to grow U.S. acreage planted in non-GMO beets, and have a segregated supply chain for that domestic source of sugar.&#8221; For consumers, the new labeling guidelines in the U.S. already make it difficult to locate GMO sugar in food products. &#8220;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.ams.usda.gov\/rules-regulations\/national-bioengineered-food-disclosure-standard#:~:text=The%20new%20Standard%20requires%20food,the%20BE%20status%20of%20foods.\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">The National Bioengineered Food Disclosure Standard<\/a> is concerned with GMO material that\u2019s detectable in the final product. In sugar production, <strong>the refining process makes GMO material not detectable<\/strong>. Some manufacturers may volunteer the information on their label (\u2018contains bioengineered material\u2019) but they\u2019re not required to&#8221;, Eisenbeis said.<\/p>\n<p>Fortunately,<strong> there are 160 brands offering 580 Non-GMO Project Verified retail sugar products<\/strong>. Among these brands are leading sugar suppliers C&amp;H, Domino Sugar, and Florida Crystals.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Author:<\/strong> Arianne Pfoutz.\u00a0<em>Article republished with premission from\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/non-gmoreport.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">The Organic &amp;
