U.S. Supreme Court to Hear Dispute Between Monsanto, Indiana Soybean Farmer
The Supreme Court is agreeing to hear a dispute between a soybean farmer and Monsanto Co. over the company’s efforts to limit farmer’s use of its patented, genetically engineered Roundup Ready seeds.
The justices say they will hear an appeal from Indiana farmer Vernon Hugh Bowman, who is trying to fend off Monsanto’s lawsuit claiming Bowman made unauthorized use of the seeds.
