Syngenta/Monsanto withdraw the last GM sugarbeet from the UK national seed list process. Now only one variety of GM fodder maize, one variety of GM winter oilseed rape and one variety of Spring oilseed rape (all owned by Bayer CropScience) now left in the application process for the national seed list. This compares with 11 varieties a year ago and 58 varieties since 1994 and none actually on the seed list and commercialised so far!
