There are plenty of NON GMO hybreds, and farmers have a choice as to what they plant. If they don't want to sign the agreement NOT to use the grain they harvest as seed for the following year's crop,, they can just plant another variety.

That's not entirely true. If you plant a non Monsanto crop and some of your crop gets contaminated w/ pollen from your neighbors GMO crop and you try to save or resell your seeds, Monsanto will come down on you like a ton of bricks and sue you for "copyright infringement" and take you to the cleaners.

Conservatives should not be the cheerleaders for Monsanto!

I am not a big fan of Monsanto. And FAR from a Cheerleader.

Neither am I a big fan of misinformation. Every word I posted, IN YOUR ITALICS, is accurate to the best of my knowledge.

Farmers DO have choices. If they don’t want to sign the agreements stating they will not plant bin run seed, they have other choices of seed that is NOT GMO, which doesn’t require signing the agreement to plant.

I said nothing of errant pollen in my post. That’s another line for this discussion. But not one I put on the table.

That’s interesting.

Can you point me to some examples for further reading?
