But if I take unconsumed food from my plate and use it for compost or just dispose it in garden? Is that a patent use legal issue? Should laws protect us from unwanted GMO patents? For example, if I have a field and field next to mine is growing GMO, why I would be in danger of legal issues? I should get protection for using my land for growing what I need.

If it is only crossing and breeding, how that can be patented? How can you prove that I didn't use protected patents?
