I've been doing that for my whole farming career. I compete against the American farmer. In my operation it has forced me, or made me, adapt my operation to grow other crops and to become more efficient in my production in order to be able to compete. I have no problem in saying that in the marketplace today I think I can compete better than the American farmer, and survive, because I have the tools. I've been working with them my whole farming career, and I've had to do it.
