21. Cannabis and the Rush For Genetics: Who Owns the Intellectual Property? w/ James Bennett
James Bennett has a theory that it really only takes four things to be successful — good water, good soil, good genetics, and a good farmer.
Obviously the farmer is responsible for providing good water, soil, and expertise.
But who’s responsible for the good genetics?
James says it’s the farmer’s custodial duty to take care of the plants and try to refine those genetics as best they can.
But does that mean the farmer gets to own that intellectual property? Should anyone even get to own it?
James, CEO of Yeomen Farmers Brand, came on the show this week to talk about cannabis, the rush for genetics in 2019, and issues surrounding IP.
