Abstract
Summary
The Global South is rich in biodiversity, including sought-after seeds and plants. In this chapter, I show the culturist and speciesist dynamics that have removed Southern control of them. I discuss the ever-increasing spiral of biopiracy to point to the interlinked dynamics that help multinational corporations monopolise seeds and plants.
