&lt;em&gt;Even as a strong campaign against PepsiCo products began in India, the corporate giant said it might withdraw the case if farmers were willing to sign an agreement for buying the registered variety of FC-5 potato seeds. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
New Delhi: &lt;/em&gt;The legal tussle between multinational giant PepsiCo and potato farmers in India has intensified. In a court hearing in Ahmedabad on April 26, the company has gone ahead to suggest an out-of-court settlement of its case against the farmers offering some conditions. The company has said it wants farmers to sign an agreement for buying the registered variety of FC-5 potato seeds and selling the produce to the company only. It has further demanded that farmers give an undertaking that they would never buy and sow the said registered variety of FC-5 potato seeds in future. The move of the company comes in the backdrop of a strong campaign in India against PepsiCo products, specifically its potato chips brand Lays.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
On the day of the hearing of the case, the All India Kisan Sabha (AIKS) organised a press conference in New Delhi, seeking intervention of the Narendra Modi government to protect the potato farmers in Gujarat, who have been implicated by the multinational corporate PepsiCo, demanding that the company should withdraw its case.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
PepsiCo India had filed lawsuits against four potato farmers from Sabarkantha in Gujarat on April 11 for &amp;ldquo;illegally&amp;rdquo; growing and selling potato variety FL-2027, for which the company is the registered breeder, asking the farmers to pay a compensation of Rs 1.05 crore each. On the company&amp;rsquo;s plea, the Deesa court had appointed a senior clerk as the court commissioner to inquire into the dispute by visiting the premises of the two farmers in their village and file a report.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The AIKS stated that the case by PepsiCo is a violation of Protection of Plant Varieties and Farmers Rights Act, 2001 that clearly mentions the right of farmers to &amp;ldquo;save, use, sow, resow, exchange, share or sell his farm produce including seed of a variety&amp;rdquo; so long as he does not sell branded seeds.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Farmers&amp;rsquo; unions and activists are fighting back against the food and beverage giant, making this the latest battle in India between local businesses and big global players.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;em&gt;Even as a strong campaign against PepsiCo products began in India, the corporate giant said it might withdraw the case if farmers were willing to sign an agreement for buying the registered variety of FC-5 potato seeds. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
New Delhi: &lt;/em&gt;The legal tussle between multinational giant PepsiCo and potato farmers in India has intensified. In a court hearing in Ahmedabad on April 26, the company has gone ahead to suggest an out-of-court settlement of its case against the farmers offering some conditions. The company has said it wants farmers to sign an agreement for buying the registered variety of FC-5 potato seeds and selling the produce to the company only. It has further demanded that farmers give an undertaking that they would never buy and sow the said registered variety of FC-5 potato seeds in future. The move of the company comes in the backdrop of a strong campaign in India against PepsiCo products, specifically its potato chips brand Lays.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
On the day of the hearing of the case, the All India Kisan Sabha (AIKS) organised a press conference in New Delhi, seeking intervention of the Narendra Modi government to protect the potato farmers in Gujarat, who have been implicated by the multinational corporate PepsiCo, demanding that the company should withdraw its case.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
PepsiCo India had filed lawsuits against four potato farmers from Sabarkantha in Gujarat on April 11 for &amp;ldquo;illegally&amp;rdquo; growing and selling potato variety FL-2027, for which the company is the registered breeder, asking the farmers to pay a compensation of Rs 1.05 crore each. On the company&amp;rsquo;s plea, the Deesa court had appointed a senior clerk as the court commissioner to inquire into the dispute by visiting the premises of the two farmers in their village and file a report.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The AIKS stated that the case by PepsiCo is a violation of Protection of Plant Varieties and Farmers Rights Act, 2001 that clearly mentions the right of farmers to &amp;ldquo;save, use, sow, resow, exchange, share or sell his farm produce including seed of a variety&amp;rdquo; so long as he does not sell branded seeds.&lt;br /&gt;

<br />
New Delhi: </em>The legal tussle between multinational giant PepsiCo and potato farmers in India has intensified. In a court hearing in Ahmedabad on April 26, the company has gone ahead to suggest an out-of-court settlement of its case against the farmers offering some conditions. The company has said it wants farmers to sign an agreement for buying the registered variety of FC-5 potato seeds and selling the produce to the company only. It has further demanded that farmers give an undertaking that they would never buy and sow the said registered variety of FC-5 potato seeds in future. The move of the company comes in the backdrop of a strong campaign in India against PepsiCo products, specifically its potato chips brand Lays.<br />
<br />
On the day of the hearing of the case, the All India Kisan Sabha (AIKS) organised a press conference in New Delhi, seeking intervention of the Narendra Modi government to protect the potato farmers in Gujarat, who have been implicated by the multinational corporate PepsiCo, demanding that the company should withdraw its case.<br />
<br />
PepsiCo India had filed lawsuits against four potato farmers from Sabarkantha in Gujarat on April 11 for &ldquo;illegally&rdquo; growing and selling potato variety FL-2027, for which the company is the registered breeder, asking the farmers to pay a compensation of Rs 1.05 crore each. On the company&rsquo;s plea, the Deesa court had appointed a senior clerk as the court commissioner to inquire into the dispute by visiting the premises of the two farmers in their village and file a report.<br />
<br />
The AIKS stated that the case by PepsiCo is a violation of Protection of Plant Varieties and Farmers Rights Act, 2001 that clearly mentions the right of farmers to &ldquo;save, use, sow, resow, exchange, share or sell his farm produce including seed of a variety&rdquo; so long as he does not sell branded seeds.<br />
<br />
Farmers&rsquo; unions and activists are fighting back against the food and beverage giant, making this the latest battle in India between local businesses and big global players.<br />
