Non-GMO
Farmer who specialize in animal agriculture – particularly those raising chickens for meat and eggs – have used genetically modified corn and soybean crops for years. Through intensive breeding efforts these modified crops have been altered to emphasize certain characteristics most beneficial to animal and poultry agriculture.
Most chickens raised for meat and eggs today are genetically modified. Independent, family-owned farms do breed heritage breeds that are slower to grow with stronger bones; these independent farms are quickly being eclipsed as corporate breeders take over breeding operations. Therefore, choosing premium non-GMO feed such as Marshall Grain’s New Country Organics feed or Soy-Free Non-GMO Texas Natural Feed from Bryant Grain Co triple-cleaned feeds becomes even more crucial – we offer starter crumbles, all stock pellets or scratch grains from New Country Organics to Non GMO Project Verified feeds too.
