The ability to create seeds that can only be controlled by your own pesticides and/or medications could be interesting. and scary. Politics aside, can that be an antitrust issue?
[edit: also, is this another "quiet" inversion also? US loses another business for tax purposes?]

- mason240 10y agoI googled "Agglomerated Monster corn" and came up with nothing. Is it a scare term for GMO?
- maxerickson 10y agoIt's just a made up name with a bit of a sardonic tone to it. But imagine how fun it would be if they spun out the new entity and named it "Agglomerated Monster Agricultural Products".
