IF a farmer has his crop cross pollinated by a patented crop, what is he

What he is supposed to do is beyond the scope of this argument.
What he is NOT supposed to do is identify, isolate, and propagate
someone else's patented property.


I say it's a basic, inherent human to isolate and propogate "better" food
regardless of the source.
