That's the conclusion you've come to? Do you realize we are dealing with near monopolistic companies? And the argument of just anyone starting up and competing is senseless... So that justifies your argument? Words like collusion, gouging come to mind. Years of ratcheting up the price, where is resistance? In brown bagging.

So start up a company and give farmers cheap hybrid HT seed. Make a fortune. The reality is no one wants it because they want the latest Invigor seed for 19.95 a pound so they can outgrow their neighbour who bought the 17$ stuff.
Or grow AC Excel, any non HT open pollinated.
Or realize you can't have all the latest high tech genetics and technologies - and not pay for them.
Farmaholic, it should be very obvious, there is nothing worth growing that's almost for free - so you're gonna have to steal it.
And that's a completely feasible and workable option if you're willing to live with the risk.
You should be able to tell by the complete lack of postings by others, its only a problem for you and Goodrum. Everyone else is accepting of the fact you get what you pay for with canola seed.
The seed cost itself is not out of line with most other certified seed costs per acre - especially considering its a hybrid.Comment

Ya you're probably right. Or at least lost interest 50 posts ago because there is no solution to a problem that doesn't really exist.
Good luck with Westar in the future.Comment

Pretty sure there would still be farmers without Intellectual Property Laws but would there be seed companies or need for these laws without farmers?Comment
