Question

Hello, Im an Italian scholar currently working on GMO. I need to know whats the share of GMO products on the whole sales of agrobusiness companies. The more analytical the data breakdown, the better for my purposes e.g. by company, by product etc.. Are you aware of any peerreviewed study related to this subject?

Publically held companies (such as the companies mentioned below) do disclose detailed financial information, however not always to the level of individual products.

 

While a peer-reviewed study on GM product sales is not available, you might be interested in the company reports from the GMO Answers founding members which include high-level sales information. The reports are made available online and linked below. As a general rule, many private companies (including those outside of the biotechnology industry) do not publically disclose detailed financial information, especially if the information is competitive or confidential in nature.

 

You can follow these links to view public reports related to sales from BASF, Bayer, Dow AgroSciences DuPont, Monsanto, and Syngenta.

 

If you have any additional questions regarding GMOs or biotechnology in agriculture, please ask.
