Through ownership of patents on 90 percent of all GE (Genetically Engineered) seeds, Monsanto effectively owns most of the U.S. food supply, and not just processed foods.
​
Aside from the dirty tricks used in obtaining seed patents you mention, if they put in the time and effort to obtain those patents, then its their competitions fault for not putting in more time and effort themselves in order to obtain a similar share of patents.
