Percy Schmeiser decision: Court tramples farmers rights
Civil society and farmers' organizations worldwide reacted with outrage to today's 5-4 decision by the Canadian Supreme Court, affirming Monsanto's right to prosecute farmers who are found to have GM crops growing on their land - whether they wanted them or not. Gene Giant Monsanto accused Saskatchewan farmers Percy and Louise Schmeiser of violating the company's patent on genetically modified canola (oilseed rape). Percy and Louise did not want Monsanto's GM canola seeds that invaded their property, and they did not try to benefit from the herbicide-tolerant trait in the GM seed (that is, they didn't spray Roundup weedkiller), but still Monsanto prosecuted them for patent infringement and demanded a portion of their income. The Schmeisers waged a courageous, 7-year battle against Monsanto that went all the way to the Supreme Court
Monsanto wins; pray you're not contaminated
Ugh.

A organização francesa Rede de Sementes Crioulas, Biodiversidade das Sementes e Mudas na Agricultura - Réseau Semences Paysannes, Biodiversité des Semences et Plants dans les Fermes - enviou uma delegação ao Brasil em março de 2004 para conhecer as diferentes experiências de agricultores/as familiares, movimentos sociais, ONGs e outras entidades com as sementes crioulas: resgate de cultivares locais e tradicionais, Bancos Comunitários de Sementes, etc. Além de dois agricultores ecológicos e um técnico agrícola da ADAP - Association de Développement de l'Agrobiologie en Perigord -, o grupo incluiu uma engenheira agrônoma espanhola, como assessora e intérprete, e um cinegrafista brasileiro, que documentou a viagem por quatro estados brasileiros: Rio Grande do Sul e Santa Catarina, no sul, Paraíba e Ceará, no nordeste do país.
