Farmers say, "We do not know the genuine source of heirloom seeds so presently forced to use hybrid seeds." If you can help with some genuine desi seeds suppliers then feel free to share the information with us.

This is not correct. There are so many desi/heirloom/traditional seeds of cereals, pulses, vegetables and all other crops still being cultivated by farmers of India and all over the world. India have thousands of heirloom rice varieties and majority of them still cultivated by farmers. Hybrids are being pushed by seed companies with support from government agencies and government policies and government organisations like Agriculture universities and research centres also promote hybrids-this is like the war/weapon industry: the war/weapon industry produces weapons and they have to sell it for their survival. So they support human conflicts overtly or covertly so that they can sell off their stocks. Seed companies and research centres create hybrids for their own existence-it is their business. They they push it onto farmers to make huge profit. We can supply many varieties of true desi/traditional/heirloom seeds of all kind of crops.
