What are three genetically modifi ed crops currently being planted, and what percentage are they of the total market for that crop (e.g., Roundup Ready® rapeseed)?
What will be an ideal response?
Again, this information (data sets) can be found at the USDA website.
Rapid growth in adoption of genetically engineered crops continues in the
United States.
Ht is defi ned as “herbicide tolerant,” and these plants can survive the
application of Roundup Ready®, an herbicide used to kill weeds. Ht crops
can be sprayed with Roundup Ready® so the weeds around them are
destroyed, allowing the crops to fl ourish. Bt and plants with the Bt gene
produce the insecticide chemical originally made in the Bt bacteria. By
producing this toxin, the plant kills insects that eat too many of its leaves.
