They may not be wrong. The article says that glyphosate was found present in all but two of the 45 oat-derived products. There are no GMO oats available on the market.
Glyphosate is sometimes used on wheat and oats when the plant is at the end of its lifecycle when it is fine, if not desirable, if it kills the crop. We can reasonably conclude that the traces showed up because of the crop being non-GMO, delaying application until the plants are old.
- zeroego 8y ago>There are no GMO oats available on the market That's not true at all. Many companies offer Non-GMO oats. There's is a big difference between crops being sprayed with glyphosate and crops coming from non-GMO seeds.
- tptacek 8y agoWait, didn't you two just say the same thing? He said there are no GMO oats available. You said companies offer non-GMO oats, which are not GMO oats.
- zeroego 8y agoAh you're correct, I'm sorry I misread.
- randomdata 8y ago> There's is a big difference between crops being sprayed with glyphosate and crops coming from non-GMO seeds. Being a grain farmer, I know. :)
