      abstract = {Herbicide resistant weeds are having a major impact on  Australian agriculture In
response to this new problem,  "genetic engineering" techniques are being used to
create  new types of lupins which are resistant to non-selective  herbicides which still kill
the weeds In this study the  economic value of such a transgenic lupin was
investigated  using a multiperiod bioeconomic model The model represents  the
wheat/lupin cropping system of Western Australia. The  profitability of a wide range
of weed control measures  (both chemical and non-chemical) used separately and  in
combination with a transgenic lupin are compared with  the current options available to
farmers For the scenarios  considered. it is found that a system involving a  Basta®
resistant transgenic lupin would have similar  profitability to a system based on current
lupin varieties  employing Gramoxone® for crop topping. However, where  a
transgenic lupin is resistant to glyphosate, and is used  in conjunction with windrowing
of both crops, farm profit  increases by 33 percent.},
