New Contest - seeds Q12 (R1), Q8 (R2)
If I'm right you can make profit if you participate and make everything yourself
?

Extract from the contest page of the newspaper
Now i wonder how small companies are going to get the research needed??Hint for smaller companies:
Small companies often do not have the potential to get a good ranking in a contest, as they do not have enough resources/cash to produce as many products. But if you sell the contest products to bigger companies, this is a great opportunity to earn a lot of money.
It was time to get high quality-contests. 
Too long has been the time that players always did the same things - now there is indeed a research necessary to produce the contest product.
Thus the recent contest product is easy and difficult at the same time.
It is easy because you only need two "ingredients": water and a seeds-research. Additionally seeds can be produced in plantations that are very popular buildings.
It is difficult because you cannot produce the seeds without an adequate research. If you want to produce other products you can sometimes simply buy high-quality-"ingredients" and then produce a high quality-product.
So I am really excited what this contest will bring us.

I am not sure about this.
Of course it is possible to use 100 fully expanded plantations (speaking mostly for R1 now) and produce seeds Q12. Yet it will also depend on the market prices if the plantation-freaks send the seeds to the contest or sell it to others.
And you must not forget that there are a lot of companies that can produce their own seeds Q12, the supply will not be too low. So interested contestants will have got a lot of seeds to buy - and then it is not clear if someone with "only" 100 fully expanded plantations will have got a chance.
You only need to check the amounts that have already been send it... 20 millions for place 1 and 10 millions for place 2 in R1 - that shows the potential!
So in my opinion it's going to be very interested!
