Calculation of aggregate ai and EIQ savings for 2020: example based on above example of cotton insecticides used in India 2020.

Total crop area (million ha) subject to insecticide treatment (if all crop using non-GM seed)	13
Baseline aggregate ai use (million kgs) if all conventional (basis 1.72 kg/ha)	22.4
Baseline aggregate EIQ units (million) if all conventional (basis 73.76.ha)	959.9
GM IR crop area (million ha) on which change in insecticide use applicable	12.22
Aggregate insecticide ai saving (million kg) based on average saving per ha of GM IR cotton relative to conventional cotton (1.72–0.604 = saving of 1.12 kg/ha)	13.665 (−61%)
Aggregate insecticide EIQ saving (million units) based on average saving per ha of GM IR cotton relative to conventional cotton (73.76–16.61 = saving of 57.15 EIQ units/ha)	698.4 (−72.8%)
