@wallstreetjournal: Driscoll's executives went to China 15 years ago with a goal of turning blueberries—a fruit few Chinese people then ate—into the country’s next big food trend. By 2020, it was cranking out thousands of tons of blueberries for Chinese supermarkets. Then came Chinese competition and IP theft.

It’s ludicrous that companies can claim rights on a plant.

Patents on plants or animals should be illegal. The history of humanity is history of new arts of plants and animals being cultivated and then spread worldwide. Without it humanity as whole couldn’t survive and evolve.

IP on fruit is BS ripping off the farmer. When China invented hybrid rice, it helped 60+ countries to boost grain yields 20-40% around the world.
