We only wish to educate the public and dispel myths, so they understand the full global impact that is possible with this type of production.<br /><br />The fact is, we are living in a world where 6 billion people need to be fed. Among these, there are many countries, cities and towns where corn production is heavily relied upon, but too difficult to produce.<br /><br />We are privileged in the United States that food is readily available to our population, in many nations that is not the case. With our products, we can help solve this problem and offer a corn seed that is easy to grow, resistant to insects and other outside stressors and contains a perfectly balanced nutritional value.<br /><br />We support our local farmers 100 percent and never encourage anyone to do otherwise. We aren’t asking anyone to change what they eat, but rather to understand that not everyone has access to beautiful and fresh produce like we do here, and it needs to come from somewhere. We are able to fulfill that global need that stems hunger and feeds the world.<br /><br />http://thegardenisland.com/business/local/article_d915f708-5db3-11e0-9a47-001cc4c002e0.htmlAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
