Hay growers who sell Roundup Ready alfalfa no longer have to tag every bale. According to a Dec. 18 USDA-APHIS supplemental administrative order, the genetically modified hay now may be identified by lot. Vehicles transporting the hay must carry specific documentation about it and display an 8.5 x 11" sign that identifies it as Roundup Ready.
