I was just going to say that it's interesting to hear you talking about China, because China entered into the grain markets last week and caused huge problems for Canadian farmers.

Pesticides and herbicides haven't gone up. Statistics tell us they've lagged behind fertilizer and energy as input costs.

Mr. MacKay or Mr. Haney, can you tell me what your thoughts are on that? Are they going to come up, keep up with the increase in the fertilizer and energy?
