As discussed on KBOO: Monsanto owns HALF of the worlds seed - TopicsExpress



          

As discussed on KBOO: Monsanto owns HALF of the worlds seed supply. Monsanto won this case in May, 2013. Farmers are not allowed to save their own seed if they purchase Monsantos GMO seeds. But it is almost impossible, in much of the farm belt, to not grow GMO seeds, because the GMO pollen and or seeds will drift from nearby GMO crop farms, and if GMOs are found on a non-GMO farmers land, he/she could face lawsuits of patent infringement, even if they did not purchase or plant the GMO seed. Hundreds of US farmers have been sued by Monsanto, many squeezed out of business. Most US farms have been squelched by giant agro business. Only 1.2 of the nation today are farmers. m.youtube/watch?v=RHPXFQY66QA
