I wish you the best of luck as your fate is decided in the US Supreme Court in a case regarding genetically modified seeds. At age 75, living in Indiana as an independent farmer, I’m sure you’ve seen many changes in the industry.
Do I have legal expertise to lend? No, sadly. But I do eat grain and meat raised in the mid-west. My father-in-law ran a dairy for 30 years and now runs a cattle ranch and spends much time planting, cutting and baling hay.
It is time for the family farmers to stand up to huge companies like Monsanto and say that we provide America’s food. When the wind blows seed ten feet over to our neighbors’ they should not be sued for stealing from huge companies like Monsanto.
If the seed is self-perpetuating, so is the greed of this company that says it needs to gain back its R&D moneys. I can only hope that the Supremes vote in favor of the American family farmer, and not huge conglomerates who don’t care about us or our food supply, only money. Not happy about this right now, Dee
