Who Owns the Right to Seeds?

from Earth Matters · host BFM Media

A quiet but crucial battle is playing out over something we often overlook - seeds. Proposed changes to Malaysia’s Protection of New Plant Varieties Act could shift seed rights away from small farmers and into the hands of multinational companies. To help us understand what this means for farmers, food prices, and even our national seed sovereignty, we’re joined by Chee Yoke Ling, the Executive Director of the Third World Network.Image Credit: ShutterstockSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
