Conventional Non-GMO Corn :

IT ’ S ALL WE DO !

Viking is now 100 % focused on non-GMO hybrid seed corn and soybeans . It is all we do . All our relationships with breeding programs and all of our research trials , product-development trials and our business planning are concentrated on bringing you the very best non-GMO hybrid seed corn and soybean seed available .

GMO Purity in Seed Corn

The presence or absence of GMOs in your seed corn may not matter to you at all , or it may be extremely important ( if you are selling grain to a non-GMO grain purchaser , for example ). In order to clarify the status of Viking non-GMO conventional corn , we have developed a new system that classifies our seed corn into three different levels of purity . Please see page 4 for complete information .

Conventional Corn and “ Non-GMO ” Contracts

We do not guarantee any of these conventional corn hybrids to be 100 % free of GMOs ( genetically-modified organisms , or more accurately : corn traits derived from recombinant DNA technology ). Furthermore , we cannot guarantee that grain harvested from Viking Conventional Hybrids will be marketable as “ non-GMO ” grain .
