And why, do these big biotech companies make farmers purchase seeds every year, when crops naturally leave seeds for the next season?


Efficiency. Have you ever seen a field after harvest when the leftover seeds sprout before the first frost? It's a clusterfrick and you have maybe half of the plants that you would have when you till the soil and plant them in rows.

Efficiency, are you kidding me?

They make them purchase seeds every year to profit, it has nothing to do with efficiency for the farmer.
