Thank you, Mr. Chairman.
Yes, it's important for government to have a long-term plan for agriculture. Included in that is succession planning, but just have a long-term plan with our agricultural policy, so that producers can see which direction the government is headed in. Of course, that's always up for change every three or four years. It certainly helps producers when they can look at it and say, well, at least the government's got a plan; we know where they're heading. Whether you agree with it or not, we know where we're going to be in three to four years. I think that's important.
