<< I realize that you've had good results and I don't know what strains you've been planting. But your results don't necessarily represent the typical case. >> I read in the Farm Journal where 60% of the corn, beans and cotton that will be planted in the US this year will be GMO. 60% puts me in the typical case.

"There are many scientists who feel that the profit motive and not the need or scientific safety have driven the introduction of GMO into the food chain." This is so true, Cosmicforce. Corporations have taken over the world through globalization and are now patenting seeds that third world farmers have been improving for thousands of years, so people will no longer be able to save seeds and grow food to feed their families? The story of GMO agriculture is simply pure profit with the potential risk of destroying the entire planet.
