How far is it from your organic corn field to the next nearest field of corn?? If you are not surrounded by 1/4 mile of timber on all sides or your field is not in the middle of a 1000 acre bean field, your crop is probably cross pollinated with whatever gmo trait your neighbors plant. Pollen floats on the air. I have never planted Roundup Ready corn, my neighbor does and I have RR volunteer corn in my RR beans. The other part of this is how easy is the access?? Drive off the road into the field, OR drive back down that 10'wide trail, watch for tree limbs, drive thru the creek 3 times and be sure to take a run at that last crossing, it's soft there, but when I hit it in 4th wide open on my M, I can usually dig right thru it and out the other side.

Lots more variables here, but sounds to me like if you are planning to do this regularly, you need to buy your own specialized equipment to handle it and stop expecting your neighbors to perform a miracle for you. Your failure to plan ahead is not an emergency on my part. Chris

There are many types of cylinders that one might run across on a farm scenario. Each one could take a chapter in
