What you said mostly aligns with that scenario. For the farmer that did sign a contract with Monsanto, that is a standard and required clause, and they do enforce it.

minus-squareCeedoestrees@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up5arrow-down4·15 小时前You getting downvoted for stating what’s factually correct while still disagreeing with it is classic shooting the messenger.
