How would you feel then, if you were a farmer, about
being prosecuted
for growing plants from the seed of the plants that grew from the
seeds purchased from international seed company X?
__
As a side note, this does indeed happen. By the way it's even worse,
they will prosecute a farmer even if he harvests seeds from his own
plants (not grown from the companie's seeds) with the claim that, since
98% of the croplands are grown from it's (Monsanto's) seeds, most
certainly even his plants have been breeded with the nearby Monsanto
plants. Guess who wins the trials.
