These are search results from the US Patent Office. Only granted patents show up here and the public does not have visibility to patents applied for but not yet granted. FYI Monsanto has 4000 US patents, 7000 more worldwide. They were granted 427 new patents last year.
Big biotech firms are most certainly working on patenting cannabis and have for years, even decades. It defies belief to think that these companies would not want a piece of the cannabis action. It's the most profitable crop in the country, for pete's sake.
The posted article was sorely lacking in facts - but facts are out there. We just might have to find them ourselves.
keep Monsanto the fuck out of this. research on cannabanoids is already shuttered and vague enough, but throwing GMO fuckery into it will taint the good legalization is bringing in.

Unless it's actually better quality and better for you, good luck Monsanto. No reputable dealer would stain their name with your product.
