Abstract: Feeding with 2 months of age pigs during the 2nd and 3rd generations of GM soy causes pathologic changes of the reproductive abilities. Mating boar, grown with the use of GM soy with sows that are grown without it shall receive stillborn piglets. When pairing the same boar sows, grown using GM soy, born piglets developed, but there is apprehension and lack of milk crates in part sows. Hence the conclusion that the use of GM crops in food for children, adolescents and young people should be prohibited.
