It certainly can be. Farmers are not allowed to plant corn after an application of trifloxysulfuron for anywhere from seven to as much as 22 months after application to a labeled crop such as cotton or sugarcane.

Trifloxysulfuron is a herbicide that mainly used for the control of broadleaf weeds and nutsedge sedge weeds in cotton fields and sugarcane fields. It has certain harm to corn, but there is little risk. It belongs to sulfonylurea herbicides and contain 2-Bromo-3-hydroxypyridine. After application, plants can obsorb this herbicide from the roots, stems, leaves. It affects the biosynthesis of branched chain amino acids(such as leucine, isoleucine, and valine) by inhibiting the activity of acetolactate synthase (ALS). It can be rapidly metabolized to inactive substances in cotton and sugarcane, so that can protect crops from harm.

Why is corn bad for guniea pigs?

Corn is not a natural food for guinea pigs. Dried corn carries the risk of aflatoxin, and corn, while not necessarily harmful to guinea pigs, works as a filler and does not offer pigs any nutritional value. Corn can also contribute to allergies. Also, whole kernel corn can pose as a choking hazard since guinea pigs do not eat with their hands as some rodents do and can't remove large food particles should they become lodged in the throat.

It is too big for most birds, try breaking it up first with a hammer. Popping corn is a grain and therefore not harmful to birds and it will not pop after being eaten. Cracked corn is a treat for wild birds.
