Abstract

The article discusses how China's policies against importing genetically modified (GMO) crops led to a sudden drop on U.S. export of alfalfa hay to China after the hay tested positive for genetic modification. Topics include how Chinese farmers used U.S. alfalfa hay to feed their dairy cows due to the hay's high protein content, the issue of cross-contamination between GMO and non-GMO crops, and the financial impact on hay exporters such as Anderson Hay & Grain Co.
