    Lets follow the trail and see where the bull sit leads

    You start with the infowars.com website given in te initial post away up at the top of the thread.


    It gives the foolwing information.....
    QUOTE

    The owners of the blog MomsAcrossAmerica.com say the report was shared with them by De Dell Seed Company, Canada's only non-GMO corn seed supplier, which obtained it from a Minnesota-based agricultural company called ProfitPro. Overall, the paper found that non-GMO corn is 20 times richer in nutrition, energy and protein compared to GMO corn.

      Now a couple of paragraphs further down (in the same report as above we run across this conflicting set of statements.
      QUOTE
      The disparity was even worse for magnesium, which tested at a mere 0.2 ppm in GMO corn. In non-GMO corn, however, magnesium levels were found to be 46 times higher than in non-GMO corn. Similar variances were observed for calcium, sulfur and manganese as well, with the contents of each being 12.4, 14, and seven times higher, respectively.

      UNQUOTE

      so for calcium there is a 12.4 times higher level in non-GMO corn. Yet it turns into a 140 times greater difference (and an unheard of 6000 plus parts per million) in the next itineration.

        Closer examination of the second line of that same quote above clearly says Quote....In non-GMO corn, however, magnesium levels were found to be 46 times higher than in non-GMO corn.

        Comparing non-GMO corn to non-GMO corn really proves that the author is having difficulty keeping the lies straight.


        Her's the full "summary" again. QUOTE

          And finally; literature searches do not reveal any 46 or 146 times differences between corn varieties for magnesium, calcium, let alone 3400 times energy content availability.

          When you get the horse up to a 100% sawdust diet; both the horse and the owner will notice the difference from a conventional diet. And I haven't heard such complaints from the feed industry about any glyposate resistant corn variety.

          Does anyone really think this story adds up?

            Long on detail, short on credibility oneoff. In fact when you read the acknowledgements you could say the credibility of your test results is zero. Now go ask your fox how many chickens are left in the henhouse.

            "....these data support the conclusion
            that Roundup Ready corn event NK603 is as safe and nutritious
            as conventional varieties of corn on the market today.

              Is infowars even for real? They claim the Newtown
              massacre was an inside job to promote gun control.
              So when whats his name says gm corn is bad I dont
              believe him. The only thing I hate about this gm
              thing is Monsanto and the others having us by the
              nuts on our seed. The stuff is easy to grow, end of
              story.

                But it OK for grassfarmer to pick and choose data that Mom copies from a non-GMO seed supplier; who supposedly got it from an unnamed lab. And move some decimal places and then report extremmes out of the ranges ever found in any sample that anyone could even identify as being related to a corn species.

                Roundup GM corn is widely grown and you tell me how many complaints from livestock feeders or feedmill have encountered nutritional problems with any corn supplies (mycotoxins ec excluded).

                  Some people's ideas would fit in perfectly with Stone Age knowledge. And most likely they they are yearning for those Ages to return. And when todays society gets disrupted sufficiently; their view of the world will indeed be appropriate.

                    Look at the "literature" ranges of nutrient analysis for all varieties of corn (GMO or not but must be from accredited labs that have a real name and standard test equipment) and come back with some analysis reports.

                    Till the you are attempting to spread lies and personal beliefs based entirely on your warped reasoning.

                      Looks to me like ProfitPro (who is being given credit for the report) will sell you commercial fertilizers and Monsanto related additives. Need orgaic supplies and they are No sense limiting your market; and who said sales had to stick to firmly held beliefs and principle's. They appear to meet all needs.

                      Now the seed supplier might not be as big a prostitute. At least they only appear to serve the non-GMO market.


                      But which lab in the world did the analysis tests. Is their reputation so poor that it can not be published? We need to know that detail.

                        If I were to guess; I'd say their was no real lab test at all; and it was a case of "the interim feed tests looked really bad"

                        But no other evidence except firmly held beliefs and opinions one dare not challenge.

                          And if the anti GO side ever is forced to go on the defensive side; the arrgument will shift from Round-UP ready varieties supposed in question here.

                          And just like conventional canola varieties someone will be able to rightly claim that an entire fatty acid has all but disappeared from the old reliable seedstock.

                          And few ever understood the initial difference was between ****seed and canola. And I doubt if there have been any additional persons (in the general public) who have come to understand that difference since the initial plant breeding breaktrough.
