I'm betting it's either a high CBD variety or a "Round Up ready" field variety for fiber. Both markets are less controversial than THC oriented plants. The thing about the latter though is hemp doesn't really present much of a weed control issue, hemp farmers generally grow at such close spacings that the vigorous hemp forms a canopy that kills almost every competing plant by simply shading it and outcompeting it in the root zone. A high CBD strain that was at the same time reliably compliant with low EU and Canadian 0.2% THC thresholds and could thus be certified to be field grown could be a real gold mine.

comes with the territory these days of being mainstream i suppose.

Still, i'd rather face Monsanto’s lawyers then the LEO's jackbooted goons.

given Murphy's corollary, id likely be facing both now.

Monsanto Secretly Gave Money to Farmer Caught Contaminating Organic Farms with GMOs
By Christina Sarich

Natural Society reported on organic farmer Steve Marsh’s dilemma with GMO cross pollination of his organic farms a while back, but some shocking news has recently bubbled to the surface about Monsanto’s involvement.

One of the secrets of monopolizing Monsanto is that it contributed big bucks to the defense of the Australian farmer whose GMO canola crop infected Steve Marsh’s organic fields. If you aren’t privy, a ruling by the Supreme Court of Western Australia had no sympathy for Steve Marsh’s plight, and sided in favor of Michael Baxter and Monsanto.

“An organic farmer in Western Australia lost his bid to claim damages from a neighbour after genetically modified (GMO) canola seed heads blew on to his property, causing him to lose his licence as an organic grower.”

Not only did Steve Marsh lose his organic certification, but he was going against another farmer who he thought someone came up with AUD 800,000 in legal fees on his own. To add insult to injury, the judge even ordered Marsh to pay the GM farmer AUD 800,000. So Marsh not only lost his organic farm, and lost his case, but he then had to pay his neighbor for contaminating his crops with his GM seed.

When Marsh appealed the decision, the court ordered Baxter to disclose any financial arrangements with Monsanto and the Pastoralists and Graziers Association, of which Baxter is a member. His lawyer denied that Baxter has received any questionable payments from either entity.

Only after a court order did Monsanto reveal that it had provided assistance towards Baxter’s legal defense, refusing to disclose exactly how much the corporation contributed.

Of the AUD 800,000 that Baxter magically came up with to win over Marsh in court, how much do you think Monsanto provided? More information will be reported as it becomes available. One thing is for certain though, Monsanto and its dirty secrets will always be exposed.
