Title: That was for deliberate reproduction

Monsanto has stipulated and is now on the hook for not enforcing accidental/incidental reproduction (as from a contaminated field).

In the SC case, the farmer had actually taken "contaminated" seed, then self-selected for plants that had Monsanto's gene, and thereafter used that seed to plant.

Title: Yeah so?

Title: Yeah, so?

From what I understand, the farmer had a contract and the contract specified he could not do just what he did (deliberately screening seeds). So he was in breach of contract.

No word or decision about anything else.
