There has been a consolidating of the seed market over the last few years.

50% of the market is now owned by just a few companies who have made it so seeds can only produce one year of crop. You plant the seeds and grow your crop and the plant will be be unable to produce another season of plants.

No seeds produced or the seeds that are produced are infertile.

Farmers can not save seeds, they can not cross breed themselfs. It kills inovation in farming and it will cause starvation in bad years.
