No its not field corn its sweet corn. The mixture of sugar enhanced and super sweet kernels give it long holding quality days after harvest though I only sell this corn the day its picked and toss day old corn back in the field. Know one ever asked if its modified. It has some herbicide resistance to Liberty herbicide but we don't use Liberty on sweet corn... You can buy this corn in non GM form as Providence and Avalon white, in small quantities and enjoy the benefits without Bt protection... Bob.

Is this field corn you are selling to customers as sweet corn? Do your customers know it is genetically modified? Is it also herbicide resistant?
