- JamesBarney 7y agoWhen you buy Monsanto seed you are licensed to use it under certain terms. One of those terms is not saving/harvesting the seeds and replanting them. Parr went to farmers, convinced them this was ok, and then charged them money to help them do it.
- shawndrost 7y agoMonsanto did not sue Dave Runyon. The article says they threatened to sue. Therefore it's not a counterexample to GP's specific point. Maybe you think Monsanto's conduct re: Dave Runyon makes them evil, maybe not. I don't -- how would one would run a GM seed business without threatening to sue left and right? (Or using terminator genes, which seem more evil.) I'd be interested to hear from anyone that shares my priors and disagrees with my conclusions.
