Exposing Why Farmers Can't Legally Replant Their Own Seeds

patented seeds

Farmers can't legally replant their own seeds because Monsanto's Roundup Ready seeds are patented. Farmers sign agreements that prohibit saving, cleaning, or supplying seeds for replanting, and Monsanto actively enforces this through surveillance and lawsuits.

• 🚫 Farmers sign 'Technology Use Agreements' that forbid saving or sharing seeds.
• 🕵️ Monsanto employed private investigators and aerial surveillance to detect patent infringement.
• 📞 A hotline (1-800-ROUNDUP) existed for farmers to report on their neighbors.
• ⚖️ Monsanto sued over 400 farmers, collecting millions, leading many to bankruptcy or out-of-court settlements.
• ☣️ The video details the history of Monsanto's controversial herbicides, including Agent Orange and the development of glyphosate (Roundup).
