Pioneer sold the shares in 1998. Pioneer becomes the number one brand of soybeans in North America. 1992 - Pioneer paid $450,000 to Monsanto for rights to genetically modified soybean seeds that are resistant to RoundUp herbicide. 1993 - Pioneer paid $38 million to Monsanto for rights to Bt corn that is resistant to European corn borers.

SYN-BTO11-1 (BT11 (X4334CBR, X4734CBR)) is an Insect Resistant and herbicide tolerant maize under license from Syngenta Seeds, Inc.
The plasmid used to move the gene into soybeans was PV-GMGTO4. It contained three bacterial genes, two CP4 EPSPS genes, and a gene encoding beta-glucuronidase (GUS) from Escherichia coli as a marker. The DNA was injected into the soybeans using the particle-acceleration method or "gene gun". Soybean cultivar A54O3 was used for the transformation.
The fruit is a hairy pod that grows in clusters of three to five, each pod is 3–8 cm (1–3 in) long and usually contains two to four (rarely more) seeds 5–11 mm in diameter. Soybean seeds come in a wide variety of sizes and hull colors such as black, brown, yellow, and green. [9] Variegated and bicolored seed coats are also common.
A genetically modified soybean is a soybean (Glycine max) that has had DNA introduced into it using genetic engineering techniques. [1]: 5 In 1996, the first genetically modified soybean was introduced to the U.S. by Monsanto. In 2014, 90.7 million hectares of GM soybeans were planted worldwide, making up 82% of the total soybeans cultivation area.
Stine Seed Company was founded by Harry Stine's father in the 1950s as Stine Seed Farm. [1] In 1997, they entered into a large-scale collaboration with Monsanto, focusing on increasing corn and soybean yields. [2] In 2014, Forbes estimated that the company was worth almost US$3 billion, with estimated sales of over $1 billion and margins over ...
Likewise, the bulk of the soybean crop is grown for oil and meal. The high-protein defatted and toasted soy meal becomes livestock feed and dog food. 98% of the US soybean crop goes for livestock feed. [168] [169] In 2011, 49% of the US maize/corn harvest was used for livestock feed (including the percentage of waste from distillers grains ...
In 1996, Asgrow released the first Roundup Ready Soybean to the market building upon Monsanto's work to create petunia plants tolerant to small amounts of Roundup developed by Robert Fraley in 1985. The first season of sales saw over 1 million acres using the new seed and quickly over 80% of US soybeans were produced with the seed. [6]
