Is Roundup used on canola?
Roundup Ready® canola gives you versatility and outstanding yield potential. It can even tackle tough weeds – like cleavers and wild buckwheat.
How is Roundup Ready canola made?
Genetic modification Plants which are exposed to glyphosate are unable to produce aromatic amino acids and in turn die. To produce the Roundup Ready canola, two genes were introduced into the canola genome. One is a gene derived from the common soil bacterium Agrobacterium strain CP4, that encodes for the EPSPS enzyme.
What is special about Monsanto canola seeds?

Is Roundup Ready still used?
Roundup is still being sold because the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has not found the active chemical, glyphosate to be harmful to humans. As a highly effective herbicide that is perfect for treating genetically modified organism crops like corn, soybean, and wheat, Roundup works as it is intended.
Why choose Roundup Ready® canola hybrids?
