OVERVIEW

GM alfalfa has been back on the market for about six years, after a detour through the courts that began not long after it was first introduced in 2005 as the fifth glyphosate-resistant crop to be commercialized.

This technology consists of the insertion of a gene into alfalfa varieties which confers near complete resistance to injury from the herbicide glyphosate. It is the first perennial crop to have the glyphosate-resistant trait and as such, comes with a different set of management strategies.
