Alfalfa: The Next Roundup Ready Crop

摘要

First there was Roundup Ready soybeans, then Roundup Ready corn, cotton and canola. The next big Roundup Ready crop will likely be alfalfa, but not yet. Monsanto has reported that Roundup Ready alfalfa will be introduced when its food, feed and environmental safety is demonstrated and it is deregulated in the US, Canada and Japan. Regulatory approvals also are being pursued in Taiwan, South Korea and Mexico.
