I am not a big time farmer by any means but I will say this. I sign a paper every year say'n I will do what they say and I will pay more for their seed, if I put a pencil to it and save money. I am not going to do extra work, burn more fuel, waste more time, and pay more for chemicals than the guy across the fence just to teach Momma Monsanto a lesson.
Many of the same farmers who bad mouth Monsanto will gladly go to the gooberment office and sign away who knows for a few bucks of free money. I don't loose as much sleep over sign'n Monsanto's agreement as I do USDA stuff. I was approved this year for a pasture renovation program cost share. Local NRCS office told me to spray my pastures a month ago with glyphosate and plant the grass seeds they said buy and I HAD to use their drill to plant the seeds. They have 3 drills, one is broke down and they are wait'n on parts and the other two are loaned out right now but I am on the list when one comes in. It's 80 degrees here now, I have over $2000 worth of orchard grass and clover seed stacked in the barn, brown pastures, and the lady at the office is getting really tired of me calling every day.
Monsanto is not the worst enemy of the farmer by a long shot in my book right now.

A copse of wildbreaking silver birch and oak trees surround the top si
