This is an awesome accomplishment. How did you, and your company, overcome the [assumed] expensive regulatory hurdles that are in place; in the US? There is an assumption "out there" that only large players (read: DuPont, DOW, Monsanto, Syngenta etc) have the capitol/resources to enter the GMO market. Could you expand some on this over-all theme?

Just as an aside from this thread: I'm so glad you're still, at the least, reading these threads on Reddit.

You appearance on RT last week was hilarious.

She mentions Monsanto in response to a question about RoundUp, a Monsanto product; hence them being best able to answer it.

If the question was focused more towards glyphosate in general, or any of the other brands of the chemical (Touchdown from Syngenta, for example) she may allude to other resources.

you don't spray other herbicides on your corn directly. cause it would kill it.

This is a nonsense statement.

Other herbicides I can spray directly on my corn, without killing it: MCPA, dicamba, 2-4D, mesotrione, atrazine, s-metolachlor, bromoxynil, isoxaflutole, bicyclopyrone, bentazon, tembotrione, fluthiacet methyl, thiencarbazonemethyl, rimsulfuron and clopyralid.
