[QUOTE="Cropper, post: 7022200, member: 1147"] Imagine a world where you buy a pedigree bull from a breeder and then have to pay them again every year according to the number of calves produced at a rate that they decide. No doubt animal breeding would be concentrated into the hands of a few multi-nationals and they would remind us that without them doing their work livestock would be far more susceptible to diseases and have lower feed conversion efficiency and growth rates and we’d be in the dark ages. This is what has been allowed to happen with plant breeding somehow. I think it is very wrong. [/QUOTE]
