Saw where a guy had two traited corns planted in strips and they prefered one over the other. Had nothing to do with non-gmo, but more to do with palatability and sugar content of the plant.


Bingo. It depends on hybrid, and at what growth/development stage the plants are in at the time the critters come 'round (sugar vs. starch content at the time). My Bt sweetcorn got obliterated by raccoons last year. This BS about animals not eating GMO corn is just that - BS.
