Squeeze
"As well as being thrust into competition with large farming firms, poor farmers are being squeezed by corporate sales practices. When farmers in the global South purchase seeds developed by corporations, they are often forced to sign a contract obliging them to buy fertiliser from the same firm, often at an inflated price."
