…Roundup Ready 2 will be integrated into 150 hybrid varieties in 2010 (up from 15 in 2009) and into 1500 varieties in 2011.

Who said this? These numbers must be wrong insofar as the numbers of RR2Y varieties given on the “R&D Update” webcast in January were 15, 50, and 60, respectively, for FY2009, FY2010, and FY2011 (#msg-48331353).

At the same R&D Update, 1,200 was cited as the total number of germplasm varieties in MON’s soybean estate. Hence, the 60 RR2Y varieties planned for FY2011 are 5% of the total. Regards, Dew
