I am updating and correcting errors in the previous post. Percy Schmeiser was not an organic, but rather a conventional, non-GMO canola farmer. Also, after losing to Monsanto, he then sued Monsanto
and emerged victorious. In an out of court settlement finalized on March 19, 2008, Monsanto agreed to pay all the clean-up costs of the Roundup Ready canola that contaminated Schmeiser's fields.
