Thank you very much, Mr. Hoback.
First of all, I want to thank Mr. Van Boom and Mr. Goutbeck for coming today, as well as the other people who have come to testify.
These are clearly two related but separate issues.
I don't want to take too much of your time, Mr. Hoback, but I want to thank you very much for coming and ask you if could talk to us a little about how this has affected your farming operations in the last couple of years and how it will affect you moving forward over the next several years.
