Seed monopolies: Who controls the world's food supply? dw.com/en/agriculture… Today @Bayer-#Monsanto & 3 other giant corporations control more than 50% of the world's seeds
@Bayer "Seeds are ultimately what feed us and the animals we eat. Control over #seeds is, in many ways, control over the food supply. The question of who produces new plant varieties is absolutely critical for the future of all of us." — Jack Kloppenburg, University of Wisconsin-Madison 
@Bayer Imposing uniform seed rules on a global scale means forcing industrial farming onto parts of the world where food is still largely produced by smaller-scale, more sustainable farms.
