I recall that the seeds for RoundUp Ready crops will grow only once and that the seeds that the crop produces are sterile so that farmers will have to purchase seeds from Monsanto in subsequent years to grow future crops.

If a farmer decides to plant heirloom seeds that will grow and produce crops where the seeds will also grow new crops, what happens if the Monsanto crop infects this crop by cross-pollinating with it ?

roundup ready seeds aren’t sterile they will keep producing, and they can cross pollinate for example roundup ready canola can cross with wild mustard then you have rr wild mustard. rr crops can’t be within 1 mile of non rr crops of the same crop i belive.

Monsanto and ADM have cornered the global seed market.

They have even bought up heirloom seed companies surreptitiously, and continue to do so, even though that market offers very little profit margin.

They send out lawyers into the country to harrass and sue farmers, even when their case has no merit, in a (successful) attempt to intimidate said farmers.

I consider them to be the enemy.

Already happening.
