Have all South American countries been forced into patent agreements with the United States? Is patent enforcement in Argentina taken to the same absurd extreme

Have all South American countries been forced into patent agreements with the United States? Is patent enforcement in Argentina taken to the same absurd extremes as it is here?
That's the real issue with GMOs. Monsanto has not been kind to farmers that happen to plant near GM crops and get their genes through pollination rather then by licensing seeds.
- molmalo 11y ago> Is patent enforcement in Argentina taken to the same absurd extremes as it is here? It depends on the sector of the economy and if there's enough money on the table. Monsanto often sues farmers who do what you say. But in other sectors of the economy, some people could say there's almost no patent enforcement (same for trademark). That's one of the most frequent requests|demands our politicians receive from the US Embassy.
