NASS pesticide use data are also of high quality and have stood the test of time, but NASS surveys do not report pesticide use separately on crop acres planted to GE seeds, in contrast to acres planted to conventional seeds. Hence, a method was developed for each GE crop and trait to estimate from NASS data how much more or less pesticide was used on a GE acre versus an acre planted with conventional seeds. The last goal will likely emerge as the most vital, since the productivity of our agricultural system and the quality of much of our food supply begins with and depends on seeds.
