Nobody’s forcing farmers to buy seeds. Seed sellers are asking farmers to pay if they want their seeds.

Farmers could grow their own seeds and use those. It’s just that nobody does because buying highly productive cultivars is more profitable for them, even after they’ve shared that extra income with seed producers.
