Allen,

Well from what I understand the process is the same as the other crops that are Roundup ready,a genetic trait is grafted into the plant to resist the effect of glyphosate, I am no expert but if successful would consider it a breakthrough in alfalfa production, in this part of the world (San Luis Valley, Colorado) we aim for the best of the best in quality, the dairy market pays for and expects quality, if you are in business to supply that market you need only quality alfalfa in the bale, anything less is unacceptable.Yes it will cost more for the seed but if you can take care of the weeds after seeding plus extend the life of the stand by a couple years by keeping it clean then it's a win, win. I do understand the concern of some growers but in business economics always dictate, might not like it but it's a fact of life.
