These firms make deals with governments to offer 'free' seed to farmers for a year or two, just enough to kill off their legacy/heirloom seed supplies. Then, they are trapped with a farm an no ability to grow crops on it. Now, if they could make that rice so you can replant a portion of the crop for the next cycle, I'm onboard. But, as it stands, it just makes more and more people beholden to seed companies.
