Fairly high yielding? What we need is for those genetic engineers to to start looking at soybean, rapeseed, peanut, or other oil producing plant and modifying the genome to produce more oil than fruit.Can you imagine doubling or tripling the oil yeild from rapeseed or soybeans? Has anyone even considered research in this area? Just my wild musings. Joe.
