Soybean Farmer Takes Monsanto to Supreme Court

A single 75-year-old Indiana soybean farmer in rural southwestern Indiana is taking on the multibillion dollar agricultural giant Monsanto over the issue of who controls the rights to seeds planted in the ground.

When confronted with the David vs. Goliath nature of his battle, Vernon Hugh Bowman told The Guardian: “I really don’t consider it as David and Goliath. I don’t think of it in those terms. I think of it in terms of right and wrong.”

    Just one more evil of the giant international agri-businesses. The worst thing they have done so far is to genetically alter our grains like corn. So much GMO corn is in the food supply pretty much if the packed product does not say "Non-GMO" it is GMO. In a well published study, GMO corn was fed to rats and they all developed kidney problems and tumors. Good luck to this modern day David.
