Eastern Shore of MD
I would argue is it all about finding the right genetic package for your situation. Traits only protect yield.

What most would call cheap seed (non gmo) ended up being 1,2 and 4 out of 22 hybrids in our dryland plot when seed cost difference was figured in. This was against well know varities from 6 well known companies.

In our irrigated plot the cheap seed (same 3 as in dryland) ended up being 2,5, and 14 out of 22 well known hybrids when seed cost is factored in.

YMMV
