Monsanto vs Farmers

In 1996, Monsanto introduced its first GMO seeds. It ensured that farmers could not save the seeds and essentially loose the ownership of their seeds.
Consequently, the power balance shifted away from the farmers to corporations who now own 80 percent of GM corn and 93 percent of the GM soy market.
Now farmers not only have to buy the seeds from the corporations year after year, but they are also forced to comply with the rules and regulations embedded in the contracts, which are designed to put the farmers at a juridical disadvantage.
Since they have been wrongly accused, Dave Runyon, Troy Roush and Moe Parr have traveled the world speaking out publicly about Monsanto's reckless business policies.

Does a “patent” allow a private company to own the seeds created? Question submitted By: jerseygirl76 Does a “patent” allow a private company to own the seeds created? Notification Preferences Health & SafetyHow GMOs Are MadeGMO Basics AExpert Answer Response from Professor Drew Kershen, Earl Sneed Centennial Professor of Law (Emeritus), University of Oklahoma, College of Law · Thursday, 7/25/2013 2:27 pm The simple answer to the question is yes. But the simple answer does not adequately provide an explanation or an understanding of the question. To achieve an explanation and understanding, it is helpful to rephrase the question: Does “intellectual property” allow a private company to own the seed created? Beginning in the early 1900s, scientists began to understand the process of developing hybrid plants. Scientists learned to develop two inbred parent lines that, when crossed, produced hybrid vigo―most often meaning greatly increased yields. Using this scientific knowledge, Henry Wallace, of Pioneer Hi-Bred, controlled the information about the parental lines as a company secret, thereby gaining the intellectual property known as a “trade secret.” Thus, seed companies have been able to have trade secrets in plants for almost a century in the United States. Farmers would go to a local seed dealer and request to purchase a particular brand and variety of a seed. Upon purchase, the farmers would then own the seed for planting and harvesting a crop. However, because of ordinary rules of biology, hybrid seeds, if saved and replanted, lose about 30 percent of their yield. Thus, farmers in the United States are accustomed to returning to a local seed dealer each year to purchase new hybrid seeds. The same is true for farmers around the world. As knowledge about plants and breeding continued to develop, scientists learned in the early 1970s to use new breeding techniques based on knowledge of genetic information. In 1980, the Supreme Court of the United States ruled that an organism produced through modern biotechnology can be protected under general patent law―via a utility patent. In 2013, the Supreme Court of the United States reaffirmed that plant breeders can obtain a utility patent in biotech organisms, including seeds and plants. (Association for Molecular Pathology v. Myriad Genetics, Inc., # 12-398, decided June 13, 2013). Therefore, in the United States, plant breeders can own intellectual property in seeds and plants through each of the legally protected property rights: plant patents, trade secrets, trademarks, plant variety certificates and utility patents. Farmers purchase seeds from local seed dealers, and farmers then own the seeds for the purposes of producing a harvest. But the farmer does not own the intellectual property in the seed or growing crop. Distinguishing between the physical seed and plants and the intellectual property in the seed and plants means that the farmer can grow the seed for a harvest but cannot, in most instances, save the harvested seed for the purpose of growing another crop. This is no different from a person who purchases a movie DVD. The person owns the movie DVD but does not own the intellectual property in the DVD. Consequently, the person cannot legally make a copy of the movie DVD. After reading this far, a person might ask, “Why does the United States law recognize these various forms of intellectual property?” U.S. law creates and supports intellectual property because intellectual property provides the incentive for innovation by allowing the inventor an IPR (legally protected property right). Using the IPR, the inventor can recover the research and development costs that went into inventing the new, useful innovation. Seed companies spend years (about 13 years on average) and millions of dollars per new seed variety to produce a new, useful seed variety.

[@mathieuasselin]

So, yes seed patents existed early 1900 nonetheless farmers had the choice of saving the seeds or not. Sure, reusing hybrid seeds mean 30% of decrease on production from the original hybrid see. The difference with GMO it’s the 0 tolerance to reuse the seeds. I deleted a comment by mistake, that said patented seed existed for more that a century..this is the answer for it.

[@cpwm17]

mathieuasselin When you purchase a Beatles record do you have a right to make copies and sell them on the market?: of course not. The same with patented seeds. The patent would be worthless if anyone could steal it and profit off of the designer's expense and effort. That would destroy the market. I thought Monsanto was supposed to be evil and their seeds were supposed to be evil. Now people are claiming victimization by being caught stealing these evil seeds. I guess these seeds are not so bad after all.

I think what’s worrisome here is the idea that the seed corps are so huge and the farmers have become so beholden to them. The seed Corp is a dangerous monopoly who buys or bullies people and farmers out of business until you’re forced to use them or fold up. Then they can charge whatever they want.

[@davidporter4162]

Robert F. Nobody is forced to use the seed corps seed. They have spent billions developing new varieties so it is not surprising that they might be superior to existing varieties. I hold no torch for Monsanto but they have spent time and money and taken all of the spurious non-science abuse (remember Frankenstein foods?) for years so they are entitled to protect their intellectual property just as assiduously as Bill Gates does. I stress that this is no defence of GMOs or Monsanto, just intellectual property.

[@oe542]

David Porter yea I get that and I fully support and share your train of thought. I also fully support their right to protect their intellectual property for their sole benefit. What I’m saying is that “what if” they start falsely accusing people? Most farmers and the many small business that support them do not hand the resource to refute false accusations. If things like that start happening these companies get bigger and bigger and more powerful. Now they can bully their way in to a market, bully the price through the roof. I have no dog in this hunt. Not wanting to see anything go to either side undeservingly. Just my .02

[@davidporter4162]

Hi Robert. I accept that the relationship is David vs. Goliath in terms of resources but it is the other way around in the court of public opinion and Monsanto know that they haven't free rein to do whatever they want (gmo-awareness.com/resources/anti-gmo-groups-america/). I'm not sure where you live but anti-trust law and the legal system, while far from perfect, are there to sort these things out. Monsanto are a big company and sell about a quarter of all seed. Smaller companies still have around 30% of the market though. Almost 4 in 5 desktop computers use Windows and 95% use either Windows or MacOS. The tractor market is similar to the seed industry as is the mobile phone market. My point being that there is nothing different in the seed market compared other markets and few are making similar comments about or calling for a breakup of Microsoft, John Deere or Apple.

@@valeriegriner5644 That sounds very unlikely. Even if the company is purely evil, they would surely know that they could be sued out of existence and people sent to jail for something like that.

The only damages would be the profit from the sale of the seeds that they didn't sell, whereas their expense, apart from the other expenses, would be the cost of the seeds they used to salt the farmer's field, seeds they could instead have sold. The first part, about taking some sample of crops without permission could be true. I don't know. I have heard the Monsanto claim that the neighboring farmers who obtained their Monsanto seeds legally had complained to their seed dealers about their neighbor getting them without paying the technology fee. The best known case was Bowman vs Monsanto, which went all the way to the Supreme Court. Bowman was an honest man, who bought and used Monsanto seeds legally and profitably year after year. But he also wanted to plant a separate post season crop of soybeans. Late plantings are very risky - an early frost will kill the crop and he would lose everything. So he didn't want to buy expensive seeds for the fall planting. He had signed a contract to not replant saved seeds. So he went to a local grain elevator where they sold the soybeans as a food. It was a mixture of some non-GMO seeds but a large majority of Roundup-tolerant seeds, and they were sold at a food price, not a seed price. But this honest man told Monsanto exactly what he was doing and that he had not violated the signed contract, but he did not think the patent could extend beyond the first use of the seeds. The Supreme Court beans as food and then planting them as seeds for a crop.

'A biological patent is a patent on an invention in the field of biology that by law allows the patent holder to exclude others from making, using, selling, or importing the protected invention for a limited period of time. The scope and reach of biological patents vary among jurisdictions,[1] and may include biological technology and products, genetically modified organisms and genetic material. The applicability of patents to substances and processes wholly or partially natural in origin is a subject of debate.[1] - Wiki'edia, Biological patent

I get that the gmo companies can be a bit anal, but gmos aren't really all that different from hybrids in a lot of cases. Gmos excel at speeding up the process and allowing completely different genes to be added. Gmos are good to increase yeild, resist the effects of drought, grow jn harsher climates overall and allow us to fortify crops with essential nutrients and minerals. The American chestnut tree was all but wiped out in North America. A few mature trees can be found in the northwest but its functionally extinct. Only survives as roots and shoots eventually die. It was wiped out by a fungus brought in from China. Genetic engineering has allowed us to make a tree that's essentially immune to the fungus. Planting has started fairly recently.

It crystalized the "crock" in Netflix "crock-u-mentary." It was as objective as any Ben Stein "crock-u-mentary." The target demographic is the gullible, far-removed-from-agriculture urbanite that is ignorant of agriculture and food science.

I see you are clueless on this subject. We have had patented seed both non gmo and gmo every since Congress passed the Plant Variety Protection Act in 1970 Protecting Plant Plant Breeders with Patented Rights. Farmers quit saving seed in the mid 1930's with the development of hybrids and as each crop was developed in a hybrid over time then farmers quit saving the seed from that crop. There are many companies even foreign companies producing and selling gmo technology seed. Farmers around the world overwhelmingly freely choose gmo technology seed when it is an option. Do you why?

[@chriswhite1331]

David Adcock wow you are lacking in common sense from eatting bs you call food. First off believing actors paid to lie as in propaganda mainstream media is absolutely absurd. Cancer huh funny thing about cancer is it's created by having an acidic diet not an alkaline diet. The dirt gives the nutrients the body needs not lab grown shit. You're a farmer yet back spraying your food with chemicals that are harmful to the environment but okay to consume????? Really lmao. Man made creation will never out due mother nature. Like artificial sweeteners are causing bees to die and yes organic (pesticides) like peppers, salt, garlic, etc...are 100% healthy while corporations who make your pesticides also make chemicals that cause cancer...well that must explain why the mental n phycial problems are on the rise. I would love to know where you sell your food at so I know not to eat it at all. I grow food with fish water, chicken shit and spray things like peppers juice on the plant, coffee grounds, salt, garlic, burnt wood ask for fertilizer and a healthy way to produce 100% organic food. So you can claim the corporations that are knocking ma n pa generational family farmers out of business or cause the farmers to submit like you to help them kill us n or make profit. The legal drugs you referred about are from illegal drugs sold legally. Food and big pharma teamed up together because???? Duh to make profit. Unlike you who believes bullshit on tell-lie-vision from corrupt ass corporations, I research to learn. Nothing is spoon fed to me and I'm still going to repeat this one more time.....did you just seriously post an article from the yellow journalism you refer to as news hahaha damn dude you are killing here. You still drinking that fluoride in your clean type water????it's a neurotoxin by the way ie waste product. So let's look at your common sense....eat lab grown food and chemically treated food drink chemicals in the water so it's clean. My common sense, eat all natural mother nature grown food and use a reverse osmosis machine to clean the dirtiest water and add buffer salts to create a ph balance of 7.0 so it's alkaline not acidic. I have created my own eco system by using only natural items and guess what? My food taste amazing, grows fast, bigger, stronger, and my seeds regrow while you go buy seeds every year. You might want to learn how to be a farmer before becoming one or smarter instead of selling out. Your way is artifcal n dangerous while my way is 100% natural and benifical to me, people, n nature. Your turn......

[@davidadcock3382]

This is about gmo technology and the many many benefits from the technology not about the other garbage you are talking about. That was news and had nothing about acting. No wonder you are ignorant on this subject. The soil gives the nutrients to food what does that have to do with gmo technology? There is nothing artificial about gmo technology, genes are organic. We use less and safer pesticides with gmo technology crops, even safer than many of the pesticides organic growers use. Why would you want farmers like me go back to using more and more harmful pesticides? You really need to get an education on this subject before spewing out your lies and misinformation that your spread.

[@chriswhite1331]

David Adcock see that's my point....ignorance, you can't connect the dots to compend reality. So I'm not going to take advice from somebody who believes liars and who doesn't even understand simple solutions to what seems to be a complex system. You said this conversation is about GMO yet are completely clueless to where it came from how it became to exist and who's behind it and why. You can't explain your opinion as fact when you don't understand what you are talking about. The media you claim is truth is owned by 4 corporations and them corporations are the same ones involved with corruption and them same ones are GMO/Monsanto which changing names does not mean you sold out lol...ie Enron is Century Link who is installing the 5g lines. Which is in a small part why farmers are being pushed out for corporations to buy the land dirt cheap to make profit. If you are not following me it's because you were lead astray by liars who stole your right to farm and now you are owned by the corporations. Btw I study damn near everything you can think of. What I've stated can be verified easily like Bayer you know aspirin Bayer....Bayer gave 10,000 people aids on purpose then sold that to other countries and more people including kids got aids yet you missed that and the fact those telling you Gmos are good for you. Tell you what, I guess the rats that ate your GMO had the worst shit happen to them while the rats who ate naturally flourished means what exactly???? Man made anything will never replace mother nature. I'm giving bees life, myself n family life, and people food that gives them life while you either willingly or unwillingly give poison as food. So why oh why would there be a global boycott on GMO n Monsanto's and even banned in quite a few places around the world if it's so good for you? CBS is a liar or as many now know fake news like all yellow journalism propaganda called news. Freedom of press died decades ago. So who on tv speaks truth? Answer no one.

[@chriswhite1331]

David Adcock wow you listen to all fake news and think my statement of researching more than liars is garbage....but fake food is not garbage? Let's see here your first article was saying how CBS claims that Gmos are good which is who owns the fake news and your fake food. Let's see me studying what GMOs are is garbage even though it comes from greedy, lying, murdering, profit, people is truth... To buy seeds like all GMO farmers do causes you to depend on? A yourself B yourself C Government The answer is C So a farmer who is suppose to be independent is depending on man to create his ability to grow free food holy shit I've heard it all now. You are the new farmer of corporate America who turns the a group of people called the Godvernment. Who creates hell on earth and all for profit. Your science you claim is false. You forgot the number 1 rule in actually being a farmer.....having a green thumb and being independent yet for thousands of years humans have farmed with the same pest and grew food correctly with no problem and nature has always grown food with pest no problem. So you keep eating shit called food and I'll keep growing food that reproduces seeds so I can have generational seeds before your terrorist organization takes my freedom to grow my food for free.

Melodramatic bullshit. Runyon was suspected of illegally saving biotech seeds and would not cooperate with Monsanto. Therefore Monsanto has not let Runyon buy seeds with Monsanto technology. There was no lawsuit. Roush and Monsanto mutually settled a lawsuit in which both parties agreed to say nothing about the terms of the settlement. Roush kept running his mouth about Monsanto but kept buying their seeds in 2008. Moe Parr illegally cleaned and resold patented seeds to farmers and misled them about patent law. The court issued a permanent injuction against him. Monsanto graciously declined to accept the court ordered payment as long as he complies with the court order. In other words Moe is a lying, stealing scumbag. The scroll at the end is a lying screed of crap. Farmers are not required to buy Monsanto seeds year after year. Farmers haven't been saving seeds for certain crops decades before biotech crops. Blame Mendel for that, not Monsanto. Seeds have been patented since 1930 and farmers have always been aware of this. Farmers can buy seed from whomever they want to and willingly sign those contracts. Organic and non-organic farmers buy patented seeds and willingly sign those contracts.
