I don't want to be pedantic or anything, but the "processes" in making GMO crops are not exactly secret. There's a general set of processes for inserting genes in cells, what gets patented I think is just the result of inserting a particular gene in a particular crop strain. And if it's patented, it's actually public information anyway. There's really no proprietary or secret information involved in listing GMO ingredients, the GMO industry just doesn't want their product to be distinguishable from non-GMO crops so they don't have to deal with pesky PR problems.
