Isn't a monopoly in seeds also quite dangerous, as the whole population might be eradicated by one single disease?
Edit: Also the fact that you cannot actually fight the system without participating in said system is totally perverse. So in order to open source a seed you have to first patent it and then waive the patent you just created? Sounds like a huge overhead just to justify the legal system.
