  I did nothing of the kind. You’re trying to provoke me by saying so.

  I provided monsanto as an example next to other producers in the industry.

  I never claimed or wanted imply to be an expert. I worked with brilliant minds who were. My account here is a recollection of what was explained to me by them. Not an opinion. I honestly don’t even have an idea if it’s biased since thiis was my only source of information.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How are seedless fruits grown, if they have no seeds to carry their seedlessness attribute?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Your information is way off. Bayer bought the glysophate business from Monsanto. BASF bought the cropscience business from Bayer. The seeds are in production.

  I mentioned genetic engineering on top of crossbreeding. Yes there are many ways to achieve a goal. But a business is going to opt for the one with the fastest results.

  the plants are cross bred for generations. Each time the seeds of the plants with the best desired properties are kept.

  the seeds can also be treated (see "feminizing marijuana seeds) with chemicals to produce certain traits.

  the producers of these seeds (like monsanto, bayer, basf, …) have large R&D groups where the dna of the seeds can be further tracked and modified if required.

  these producers have large green houses just for breeding the plants and collecting the desired seeds.

  these seeds are patented. The plants produce fruits to specifications. To protect the intellectual property, patents and business, they are made not to produce further offspring, so the farmer needs to buy the seeds year after year.

  another trait that’s being developped in the plants, for example, is making the plant immune to glyphosate, allowing the farmer to wastefully spray the herbicide on the field. It will kill all plants except for the desired crops.

  source: used to work in for one of the above mentioned companies in the cropscience division.
