There was a time when a farmer could save seeds from this year’s harvest and plant them next season. It was the foundation of human civilization for years. Every culture. Every continent. Every generation passed seeds to the next. It was the most basic act of human survival, growing your own food from your own land with your own seeds.
Evil Monsanto made that illegal.
In 1994, Monsanto introduced genetically modified seeds, engineered to resist their proprietary herbicide, Roundup. They called it progress. They called it feeding the world. What they actually did was create a biological patent system where seeds, living organisms, became corporate intellectual property. And if those patented genes blew onto your farm through wind pollination, something no human can control, Monsanto sued you for patent infringement.
They did not sue a few farmers. They sued hundreds. They deployed private investigators into rural communities. They hired former police officers to knock on farmhouse doors. They created a hotline where neighbors could report neighbors for “seed piracy”. They turned farming communities into surveillance states where the crime was growing food without corporate permission.
Percy Schmeiser, a Canadian canola farmer who had been saving and developing his own seed varieties for 50 years, found Monsanto’s GMO contamination in his fields. He did not buy their seeds. He did not want their seeds. The wind carried them from neighboring farms. Monsanto sued him anyway. And the Supreme Court of Canada ruled in Monsanto’s favor. A farmer lost his 50-year seed lineage because a corporation’s patented genes trespassed onto his land.
This was not a mistake. This was the strategy.
Monsanto, now owned by Bayer after a $63 billion merger, controls over 90% of the genetically modified seed market. They bought up seed companies across the globe. Heritage seed varieties that existed for centuries were pulled from the market. Farmers who once had access to thousands of crop varieties now choose from a handful of patented options, all owned by the same three corporations: Bayer-Monsanto, Corteva (DuPont-Dow), and Syngenta (ChemChina).
Three companies control the majority of the world’s commercial seed supply. Three companies decide what you eat. Three companies hold patents on life itself.
And Roundup, the herbicide these seeds were engineered to resist, was classified as a “probable carcinogen” by the World Health Organization in 2015. Monsanto knew. Internal documents released during litigation revealed that Monsanto ghostwrote safety studies, manipulated research data, and attacked independent scientists who published findings linking glyphosate to cancer. They paid academics to put their names on Monsanto-written papers. They infiltrated regulatory agencies. They buried evidence for decades.
Over 100,000 lawsuits have been filed against Bayer-Monsanto by cancer victims. Juries have awarded billions in damages. The evidence of deliberate concealment is overwhelming and proven in court.
But the seeds are still patented. The farms are still controlled. The food supply is still consolidated. And the same company that knowingly poisoned millions with its herbicide still owns the genetic code of the crops that feed the world.
They did not just poison your food. They made it illegal to grow food without their permission. They turned the most fundamental human right, the right to feed yourself from the earth into a subscription service owned by a corporation that knew its products caused cancer. CANCER YES! YOU HEARD THAT.
This is not agriculture. This is biological enslavement.
Now can you connect it to the killing of farmers in different nations, especially African nations like Nigeria?, to the raiding of farm lands, to the stripping of agriculture, soil, to Bill Gates buying up large farmlands in Nigeria and other African countries? It’s all connected.
In our next story we will connect the dots to how Bill Gates plays a major role in all this, but right now, Monsanto isn’t the company you think they are.
They are evil, and nations need to fight for their food sovereignty, policy makers, activists and governments need to move for the removal of this company and many like it, from their nations.
While we still remain on the earth, we will eat of the good and natural foods the Creator has given us, we will live over and above all of these evils and the evil perpetrators will be brought to nought.
Grow your own. Save your seeds. And break the chain.
