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.
The dissemination of soybean crop technology and capacity building, as well as trainings at the national and international level. [8] [9] Improve soybean production and quality by conducting research and providing access to information, knowledge (including the preservation of soybeans against pests and insects) and genetic material.

The Protein Dispersibility Index (PDI) is a means of comparing the solubility of a protein in water, and is widely used in the soybean product industry.. A sample of the soybeans are ground, mixed with a specific quantity of water, and the two are then blended together at a specific rpm for a specific time.
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.
This is a list of countries by soybean production from 2016 to 2022, based on data from the Food and Agriculture Organization Corporate Statistical Database. [1] The total world production for soybeans in 2022 was 348,856,427 metric tonnes , down 6.4% from 372,853,699 tonnes in 2021. [ 1 ]
Test weight refers to the average weight of a cereal as measured in pounds per bushel (1bu. = 8 gallons or 2150.42 cu. inches). Test weight is an important predictor of milling yield for rice and flour extraction rate for wheat. USDA’s official weight per bushel for the highest grade for major cereals and oilseeds include: wheat and soybeans ...
When the soybean cyst nematode is a J2 it may then enter the root of the plant, usually just behind the root tip. [9] Once the SCNs have gained entry into the root, they can create specialized feeding cells called syncytia by penetrating the pericycle, endodermis , or cortex cell with their stylet in order to take in nutrients from the plant.

The Morrow Plots is an experimental agricultural field at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign. Named for Professor George E. Morrow , it is the oldest such field in the United States [ 3 ] and the second oldest in the world. [ 4 ]
