Introduction Soybeans and other crops have been improved genetically for many decades through traditional crop breeding – a technique that requires that species be sexually compatible. With the development of biotechnology methods, scientists have the ability to transfer single genes from one living organism into another, regardless of species or sexual compatibility. Varieties that are developed through the transfer of genes between species that are not sexually compatible are referred to as “transgenic.” Transgenic soybean plants have been developed with a gene from a soil bacteria that allows the use of an herbicide that would normally kill soybeans.

POL’Y 424 (2007) www.NationalAgLawCenter.org SUSTAINABLE INTENSIVE AGRICULTURE: HIGH TECHNOLOGY AND ENVIRONMENTAL BENEFITS Drew L. Kershen- I. PREFACE In the coming decades, agriculture faces three significant challenges. While these challenges will manifest themselves in ways unique to the cultural, socio-economic, and political conditions of different countries, developed and developing nations alike will face these challenges. Moreover, for the purposes of this article, the author assumes these challenges are truisms; consequently, there is no need to cite authority to support the author's identification and assertions. 1 Agriculture faces an agronomic challenge. Millions of people are still hungry in our world. Moreover, the world's population will continue to grow . for at least several decades. Agriculture must produce the food necessary to provide the people of the world-including those who presently have the money to feel secure about their daily bread-with an adequate supply of nutritious food'. "Agriculture must first be about food production for the survival and health of human beings, Agriculture faces an environmental challenge. It cannot produce the food needed for human beings if it exhausts or abuses Earth's soil, water, air, and biodiversity. Moreover, the general public, governments, and civil organizations from all societal sectors (academic, business, consumer, for­ profit and non-profit, public interest, and scientific) demand that agriculture Earl Sneed Centennial Professor of Law, University of Oklahoma, College of Law.

  • MONARCHS in PERIL HE MONARCH BUTTERFLY IS in SERIOUS TROUBLE —Their Numbers Have Tplummeted Over the Past Two Decades
    MONARC HS IN PERIL HERBICIDE-RESISTANT CROPS AND THE DECLINE OF MONARCH BUTTERFLIES IN NORTH AMERICA EXECUTIVE SUMMARY FEBRUARY 2015 ABOUT CENTER FOR FOOD SAFETY CENTER FOR FOOD SAFETY (CFS) is a non-profit public interest and environmental advocacy membership organization established in 1997 for the purpose of challenging harmful food production technologies and promoting sustainable alternatives. CFS combines multiple tools and strategies in pur suing its goals, including litigation and legal petitions for rulemaking, legal support for various sustainable agriculture and food safety constituencies, as well as public education, grassroots organizing and media outreach. ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Authors: BILL FREESE AND MARTHA CROUCH, P hD Executive Summary Contributing Writer: LARISSA WALKER Copy Editing: ABIGAIL SEILER, LARISSA WALKER, MADELEINE CARNEMARK Legal Consultant: GEORGE KIMBRELL Graphics: PATRICK RIGGS Design: HUMMINGBIRD DESIGN STUDIO Report Advisor: ANDREW KIMBRELL The authors are indebted to several reviewers, in particular Dr. Lincoln Brower, for their helpful comments and suggestions. CENTER FOR FOOD SAFETY MONARCHS IN PERIL HE MONARCH BUTTERFLY IS IN SERIOUS TROUBLE —their numbers have Tplummeted over the past two decades. The butterfly’s decline tracks the virtual eradication of its caterpillar’s chief food source—common milkweed—from Midwestern cropland. The demise of milkweed is due to intensive spraying of glyphosate herbicide on Monsanto’s Roundup Ready corn and soybeans that have been genetically engi - neered to withstand it. Monarchs are in imminent danger unless milkweed is restored to Midwestern crop fields. Milkweed cannot recover with continued heavy use of glyphosate on Roundup Ready crops. We face a historic choice: do we want to protect Monsanto or mon - archs? The threats to monarch survival will soon escalate, if new genetically engineered (GE) crops resistant to glyphosate and additional herbicides like 2,4-D and dicamba are introduced.

  • Safety Assessment of Roundup Ready Corn Event NK603
    Safety Assessment of Roundup Ready Corn Event NK603 Executive Summary Using modern biotechnology, Monsanto Company has developed Roundup Ready corn plants that confer tolerance to glyphosate, the active ingredient in Roundup agricultural herbicides, by the production of the glyphosate-tolerant CP4 5-enolpyruvylshikimate-3- phosphate synthase (EPSPS) proteins. Glyphosate kills plants by inhibiting the enzyme EPSPS. This enzyme catalyzes a critical step in the shikimic acid pathway for the biosynthesis of aromatic amino acids in plants and microorganisms, and its inhibition leads to the lack of growth in plants. The CP4 EPSPS proteins have a low affinity for glyphosate compared to the wild-type EPSPS enzyme. Thus, when corn plants expressing the CP4 EPSPS proteins are treated with glyphosate, the plants continue to grow. The continued action of the tolerant CP4 EPSPS enzyme provides the plant’s need for aromatic acids. Aromatic amino acid biosynthesis is not present in animals. This explains the selective activity in plants and contributes to the low mammalian toxicity of glyphosate. Two copies of the cp4 epsps gene were introduced into the corn genome to produce Roundup Ready corn event NK603. The cp4 epsps gene derived from the common soil bacterium Agrobacterium sp. strain CP4 encodes for the naturally glyphosate-tolerant EPSPS protein. The food and feed safety of corn event NK603 was established based upon: the evaluation of CP4 EPSPS activity and homology to EPSPS proteins present in a diversity of plants, including those used for foods; the low dietary exposure to CP4 EPSPS; the rapid digestibility of CP4 EPSPS; and the lack of toxicity or allergenicity of EPSPSs generally and by safety studies of the expressed CP4 EPSPS proteins.

  • Roundup Ready® Soybeans? Yes
    Post-Patent Roundup Ready ® Soybeans The last patent on the Roundup Ready® soybean trait expired a few years ago, and this flyer answers common questions that U.S. farmers ask about the use of that trait, patents, varieties, and saved seed. Is original Roundup Ready® soybean seed covered by other forms of intellectual property? While Monsanto’s* patents on the Roundup Ready® soybean trait have expired, most soybean seeds containing that trait are still covered by other forms of intellectual property in the United States, including patents on specific soybean varieties and Plant Variety Protection certificates that plant breeders obtain when they develop a new variety. Can a farmer legally save and plant original Roundup Ready® soybean seed? As of 2015, U.S. farmers may legally plant saved seed from some varieties of soybean containing the Roundup Ready® soybean trait. It is important that you check with your seed supplier to determine if a specific Roundup Ready® soybean variety is covered by other forms of intellectual property, and if so, the policy for saving seed of that variety. Will a farmer be able to purchase any soybean seed that contains the Roundup Ready® soybean trait? Ultimately, it is up to each seed company to determine if it will offer soybeans containing the Roundup Ready® soybean trait. Monsanto seed brands will not have any soybeans containing the Roundup Ready® soybean trait in their lineups. Monsanto developed the Roundup Ready 2 Yield® and Roundup Ready 2 Xtend® trait technologies to provide a higher yield opportunity for farmers, and many farmers have chosen to plant soybeans containing these newer technologies.
