Yes I would imagine the price of seed would go up if it weren't for
heirlooms. However, I don't mind spending a few bucks for a pack of
seeds. For the home gardener, the price of seed don't matter near as
much as it would to a large commercial operation that sets thousands of
plants. My slow release granular fertilizer costs me a lot more than
seed

I hear that the price of tomato seeds went up in Mozambique, a couple of
days ago.
