JD Seller, Most of what I've seen regarding seed in Africa is that Monsanto came up with a terminator gene where they can make any plant not produce seed on the second generation. They supposedly offered these seeds which supposedly also had some drought tolerance bred into them and were met with much negative backlash. Basically Monsanto wanted another market and wanted to guarantee that the farmers wouldn't replant the seeds.
Also, why is it that you think you have a mission to "feed the world"? How does it benefit you when the government gives away free wheat and corn to Africans? More importantly, how does it benefit the citizens of other countries to become dependent on free US food?

Meanwhile his people were starving....
