Notes

A critical examination of the transformation of canola from a publicly developed agricultural innovation into a privatized, patented commodity controlled by transnational corporations. Kneen traces how publicly funded research in plant breeding, once grounded in open scientific exchange, was gradually overtaken by corporate interests following the decline of public investment in the 1970s and 1980s. The book explores the shift toward hybrid seed production, the erosion of farmer seed sovereignty, and the rise of identity-preserved crop systems tailored to industrial processors.
