I can see this being good for the cats. When I got my cat declawed the Vet gave me oatmeal for her litter instead of the clay. The oatmeal didn't get stuck to her paws which were a little raw and which she licked a lot so they were often wet. Clay would have gotten packed in there. I have a feeling the corn would be much like the oatmeal. The oatmeal didn't seem to leave as much oder as my clay (clumping kind no less). I have a feeling the corn might help too. If it helps my farmers and I could afford it I'd definately use it.
It's true - like niccoli said. Farmers need the help that the government gives them. Unless they're a corporate farm with all this economy of space they don't make that much money. I grew up knowing a number of farmers. My best friends families farmed. NOW they're all moved because they couldn't make the money, got loans from the bank, couldn't pay the bank back, and got forclosed on. Several of them had farms that had been in the family for years. No reason we can't help them out sometimes. All we want is cheap food so why can't the government help fill the gap?
