<div class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US" style="color:#1f497d">The other article was written by David Roubik, other colleagues and me is about transgenic soybean in the Yucatan Peninsula, this one was published in Scientific Reports (one of Nature journals). Nowadays it is very important because our authorities are allowing to cultivate this year at least 14,000 hectares of this plant in this region of Mexico. In total Monsanto wants to cultivate 253,500 hectares of soybean in the whole country! <u></u><u></u></span></div>
