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.


It's is scary that you think this is true.

Efficiency, are you kidding me?

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

The seed they buy has a higher germination rate than the seed left from the plant.

I've never heard a farmer say they were forced to buy seeds when they didn't want to buy seeds.

Then again what farmer wouldn't want to buy seeds every year? It maximizes production and allows for planning when you know exactly what you plant in the ground
