The wide range of the problems connected with the genetic modified organisms (GMO) is considered. The present state of affairs at GM-cultures cultivation in the world described. The main attention is paid to GMO/GMI detection of in food. Absolute uselessness of exact definition of excess of 0.9% of threshold level is proved. Lack of the linkage between admissible 0.9% the maintenance of GMO in food with health of the person is convincingly shown. The assessment of the finance requirement for GMO/GMI detection system deployment in our country calculated, which showed that budgetary funds only for equipment of such centers / laboratories are more than 100 billion rubles. Taking into account expendables, utility payments, a salary to the employees and other necessary expenditure over one trillion rubles can be demanded. Absolute artificiality of all environmental risks and human fears taking place in connection with GMO problem is noted. Parallels between a ban of the induced mutagenesis and a present situation around transgenic plants, which rejection in terms of counteraction intensity is similar to the new «lysenkoism» are drawn. The analysis of the action motivation by groups of the people connected with GMO creation and distribution is carried out. The questions about new «Green (genetic) revolution» or «Evergreen revolution» in which the role of GM-cultures can be considerable are raised. For advance on the Russian market competitive domestic GM-cultures, adapted for a local environment, the proposal for creation in Russia a network of the biotechnological crop companies is made.
