Washington state agricultural officials _1_ today that genetically modified alfalfa was found and filled where it shouldn't have been.

Jerks Gan, is a well known alfalfa grower in southeastern Washington. On his farm, all seed _2_ before it's planted to make sure that there is no genetically engineered stuff mixed in. Then in _3_, he tests its crop again. But even a harvester, with the bit of hay left from a genome field, could boggle a prime cell. Gan says.
哲克斯·甘是华盛顿西南部有名的紫花苜蓿种植者。他的农场在种植之前会对所有的种子进行检测，以确保没有转基因的种子混合在内。之后在收获的时候，他会再次对作物进行检测。但是即使是带有转基因地区小部分干草的收割机也会损害主要细胞。甘表示。
