China's COFCO Ltd will return 5.4 tons of genetically modified (GM) corn imported from the United States after forbidden GM ingredients were spotted, the Natioanal Business Daily reported Tuesday citing an official.
"The return of the shipload of corn is in process now, the GM ingredient MON89034 found in the corn is not allowed," the newspaper cited anonymous sources at the Shenzhen Entry-Exit Inspection and Quarantine Bureau.
The corn arrived at Shekou port in Shenzhen in September, and the decision was made in October, sources said.
