China Approves Corteva’s Enlist E3 Soybeans

At long last, China has approved Corteva Agriscience’s Enlist E3 soybeans for import, according to a Reuters report on Tuesday.

China also approved four other GM crops for import, including Corteva’s DP4114 Qrome corn, as well as the SYHT0H2 soybean developed by Bayer CropScience and Syngenta but now held by BASF. The other two newly approved products – BASF’s RF3 canola and Bayer-owned Monsanto’s glyphosate-tolerant MON 88302 canola – had been waiting six years for permission, Reuters said.
