You are confusing two things. If you plant corn that was grown with hybrid seed, you will get ears but the yield will be very low. Makes no economic sense. If you plant 'bin run' soybeans that are Roundup Ready, Monsanto MAY come after you- they've done it before- and sue because you violated the purchase agreement when you first bought the RR seed beans- no planting the offspring! Another term for it is 'brown bagging'. ie- farmers used to save seed from purchased seed and planted next year's crop of beans. Pretty good results the first generation- but drops off after that. RR bean fields are detectable from the air- that's how Monsanto found fields/farmers to go after.
