Short term it sure has simplified weed control in canola for me. Not too happy with the seed price and tech fee as it puts our seed costs over $50 per acre.

Also, do you think if there was a problem with RR foods would the big M let us know? They are legally bound to do everything in their power to make a profit for their shareholders, seems they wouldnt want to disclose any potential health risks associated with GM foods (or R-UP). With the amount of food/dollars/fields on the line they cant just pull the plug right now on gm crops since we're relying on them to feed us cheap, and abundant food. Sadly nothing will change until the price of food increases and we learn to stop wasting so much food. Also, do you not wonder why GM crops are banned in like 30 other countries? Anyway Im not knocking guys who grow gm crops, you are simply supplying what is demanded by the consumer, however they may be a uneducated consumer. Glad to hear your crops are in :) we finished up on 2nd. Hofford Farmshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02855965287025607798noreply@blogger.com
