Christopher Preston: Short version: rate of yield increase of corn in US has increased since 1996 compared with prior. Rate of yield increase in Western Europe has decreased since 1996, compared with prior. Although none of the rates are significantly different. Rate of yield increase of canola in Canada has increased since 1996 compared with prior. Rate of yield increase in Western Europe has decreased since 1996, compared with prior. The rates are significantly different. Rate of yield increase in Canada prior to 1996, was significantly lower than the others. I noticed the major error in the date that GM crops were introduced. The paper states 1986; however, it was in So I went back to the source data from FAOSTATS and plotted the data from and then from and calculated the average yield increase over the two periods. (C. Preston, from June 27, 2013
