Genuity ™ Roundup Ready 2 Yield ®• Genuity Roundup Ready 2 Yield soybeans represent the first biotechnology trait in soybeans with the primary benefit of higher yield potential.
• Through advanced insertion and selection technology, Monsanto scientists were able to select a biotech event in which the Roundup Ready gene is situated in an area of the soybean genome which has a positive impact on yield to deliver top-end yield potential in Genuity Roundup Ready 2 Yield Soybeans.
• More Beans per Pod- Genuity™ Roundup Ready 2 Yield® soybean varieties provide higher yields by producing more three-bean pods per plant.
– That means more beans per pod and more bushels per acre. Add the same proven weed control and unsurpassed crop safety and that means more profit potential.
