10. We are talking seeds for farms.

Acres and acres of farmland. You cannot buy enough seed for that nor could anyone afford this. Farmers are checked, they are not just out on their own. Their crops come in and if they are different or at a different time that everyone elses then they are in trouble. It is not possible to buy organic seed from seed savers if you are planting 100 acres of corn. Think about this. I have only basic knowledge of all of this since my crop is grass and not subject to seed laws. We are having a tornado warning just now so whatever your questions are you can find the answers online. I am headed down to the basement.
