When you go to work for Monsanto, one of the questions they ask is "do you have a problem working for Monsanto?"

No, that's not a joke.

actually an interesting watch. Farmers do not own their seeds.

I work in biotech/ag, and Monsanto's mishandling of the whole GMO situation is so tragic. I don't think we'll ever be able to measure the opportunity cost of lives that could have been saved and improved if they hadn't fumbled the PR so badly and GMOs hadn't been villainized 🤦🏼‍♀️

For example, using radiation to mutate plants in unpredictable ways = totally allowed and considered non GMO. Using crispr to make a single, very specific change that we know for a fact doesn't have any bad side effects = GMO = bad.
