Delaware farmers' adoption of GE soybeans in a time of uncertain U.S. adoption

Article Abstract:

Delaware farmers' adoption patterns and decisions of genetically engineered (GE) soybeans are investigated by examining the accompanying changes in their operations. Model results presented rising trends of adoption in terms of farmers and acre-age, with age, soybean income, computer use and labeling opinion identifying major adopters.

Market level economic impacts of modified soybeans

Article Abstract:

A generalized dynamic simulation model was employed in conjunction with a linear programming model and an econometric model to analyze the effects of biotechnologically enhanced soybean products on the soybean market and similar markets such as livestock products. Results reveal that the production of high-protein soybeans without reduction of production yield or HPSY would push up soybean prices and positively affect returns of farmers per acre.
