Any other Round Up Ready Crops????
With the success of Roundup ready corn & soybeans - I wonder if there are other Round up ready crops I could try?
I had heard there was RR Canola (Rape) and maybe RR Purpletop Beats? Does any know? What else? FH |
RE: Any other Round Up Ready Crops????
monsanto's website only mentions roundup ready canola, corn, and soybeans... i believe monsanto axed the roundup ready wheat and i'm not sure when roundup ready alfalfa will be available to the public (it's been in the works for a few years).... i've not heard of any other roundup ready products being introduced in the immediate future, but maybe i'm not "in-the-loop"?

mycogen markets a seed and a respective herbicide. it's a clearfield sunflower seed that they sell, the chemical they sell for use on those seeds will kill just about anything except the sunflowers. clearfield is a similar term as RR. application rates for the chemical is something like 4-8 oz per acrs. mycogen sells it by the gallon.
it was $535 per gallon the last time i checked. |

Those lab scientists are always working on something, I have heard they are working on a RR turf mix, I hope not, that would mean in a few years that somegrasses would not be affected by Roundup, then it would lose it's purpose. It doesns't do anything for a couple weeds now, like horseweed, marestail...

The guy that I hunt on told me they have some RR alfalfa that is suppose to be out or is already out.
