How is this legal in the US given the first sale doctrine?
How does Monsanto avoid this?
They sell you seeds. You can grow things with those seeds, but you cant plant the grown plants' seeds.
It's even worse than that. You can buy seeds from the market place have no agreement with Monsanto but can't plant those seeds.
