Podcast: Who owns seeds? - The Food Chain
Particularly interesting podcasts that we listened to during our research.
Today’s seed industry is dominated by a handful of companies. Approximately 60% of the market is controlled by just four companies.
Many of the seeds planted by farmers are controlled by international property rights or patents, that limit how they can be used. Court cases have centred around whether farmers have the right to save and reuse seeds for future harvests.
