I have no experience with canola but common sense tells me its hard to
compare a corn plant to canola.
Soybeans, pumpkins, cotton, potatoes etc. all use the neonics. Saying corn
is not a problem for bees based on canola is painting with too broad a
brush.
Things have came a long way since the first concerns about the neonics.
Could the neonics be finding their way into HFCS?
Nobody knows as nobody is testing.
Right?
Does the possibility exist?
