I would like to get your comment on this transcript of our meeting before Christmas. We had a non-GM canola grower saying:

On the varieties of non-GM canola that I'm growing, this past year I had 45 bushels per acre in Saskatchewan, which is a very good yield, and generally speaking, the varieties that I have been growing have been equivalent or even slightly better than the best hybrids out there.

So it's possible to have higher yields without having GM technology. Is that correct?
