Au mieux, les cultures OGM [organisme génétiquement modifié] ont une productivité équivalente à celle des cultures conventionnelles, mais le rendement du soja transgénique est constamment plus faible. Un examen de plus de 8200 essais de variétés de soja réalisés dans des universités aux États-Unis a montré une diminution du rendement de 6 à 10 pour cent du soja OGM RR [Roundup Ready] par rapport au soja non-OGM.
