To add to what Obi said: There is the head of the GMO people called Monsanto and what happened was he made a contract so that whenever someone bought seeds from them they would have to sign the contract. And the contract said that if you bought from Monsanto that you would have to buy seeds from them and them only for the rest of your life. So farmers who have done that have to continuously buy seeds from them because the crops don't produce seeds themselves. Also, now all companies that sell and work on GMOs are Monsanto owned.
