I'm kinda' curious how long you been a farmin'? If I interpret your enunciated words "threat of CROSS POLLINATION" correctly, you don't give much credence to the idea.
Forgive me please for bein' just a poor dumb Kansas boy. But cross pollination has been goin' on since the first plant took root. How is it that so many, and especially so many farmers, seem to think that the process (and now problem as a result of GMOs) is some sort of urban myth?
