Millers Object to New Corn Variety

Corn millers reportedly are urging the USDA not to approve a new biotech variety of corn that was engineered to cut the cost and greenhouse gas emissions of ethanol production. The millers say the biotech kernels could accidentally get into the processors' grain supplies and ruin them. The corn in question is produced by Syngenta Seeds, Inc., which has a research center in central Iowa.
