Not in the original but my understanding is that Schmeiser was found to have
infringed Monsanto's patent by knowingly growing GM plants without paying
monsanto's license.


Schmeiser claims his crop (from which he has always saved seed) was
cross-pollinated by nearby Monsanto GMO plantings. Monsanto claimed there
was too much of the genetic material to not be a direct descendent of their
plants. The court ruled (though I don't have and probably wouldn't grok
the actual ruling) in their favor.
