wtf thats literally stealing
reported to the police enjoy prison asshole

Would work except most produce has sterilized seeds. A lot of GMO research went into making seeds single use, meaning the plants that pop up don’t produce seeds capable of germinating. Seed makers want you to constantly be buying more seeds from them.

>>22061527
people unironically buy seeds and grow vegetables though

>>22061544
That’s so fucked up

It’s about the *artisanal* produce
But really, you should just buy artisanal seeds because they’re ACKSHUALLY artisanal instead of likely gmo stuff grown organically
>>
>>22061544
Do you understand English or did you gloss over the part where OP mentioned "overpriced organic artisanal produce"?
>>
>>22061544
While that sort of thing has been researched (the formal name is Genetic Use Restriction Technology), plants genetically modified that way have never been available as a commerical product. For that matter, only a handful of fruits and vegs even have any sort of commercially available GMO varieties. Pick related is the complete list of the kinds of food that have GMO versions available in the US.

>>22061527
That will work for some fruits and veg, but not others. For example, Apples. Apple genetics are weird, and apples do not breed true - plant the seeds from the best tasting apples you can find and 99.99% of time you get some sort of nasty crabapple. All the varieties you see are grown from cutting and grafting the few good apples that crop up. Other produce may be first gen hybrids (F1) from two different parent strains. The first gen of hybrids will have stable traits, but when you breed the F1 with other F1 for the F2 gen you get a mishmash of traits.

>>22061565
Yeah apples have very high genetic variability. Good post.
>>
>>22061550
Anything can be overpriced, organic doesn’t mean non GMO, and artisanal I have no idea about since there’s no strict standard for it (unlike say USDA organic, where 95% of the ingredients needs to be organic to qualify).

>>22061557
Good to know. I mostly knew about genetic use restriction since it’s a big factor in import/export of agricultural products. US doesn’t want other countries to “steal” their agricultural technology and other countries don’t want to become dependent on the US to regularly provide them with single use seeds.

By the fact he said he implied to take seeds from high priced artisanal fruit alone indicates he wasn't referring to anything other than natural fruit.
You seem to be lacking common sense and logic in your reasoning, or again, you don't seem to understand the English language very well. Sorry for being rude at least, but you aren't making sense. Either way, the post's wording and underlying train of logic speaks for itself.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Artisanal_food#Controversy
If you took the time to look up the various controversies specifically regarding artisanal food, you’d realize the label doesn’t mean what you think it does. Technically the Tester-Hagen amendment could be partially used for a definition, but it’s too vague and broad. So as there is no formal or legal standard for artisanal food or produce, it’s meaningless without further context. Unless you agree that supermarkets can legally label their produce as artisanal, in which case my first comment still applies.

>>22061543
No snitchin’

I would start off with the word itself, artisanal. So someone is performing an "art". So a single person who has mastered a technique, or recipe selling a product that could only come from their hands or someone they are teaching. In essence the opposite of industrial, where the process should be as independent as possible.
Now this is where the semantics happen. With crops you don't really affect much. So that would be a funny shaped fruit or a specific mixture of soil that gives a veg a specific flavour.
When you start upscaling it that could be turned into a process but it's ultimately humans checking and balancing.

>Not only free but artisanal and organic.

Oh yeah, it's gardening time.
