Well, from a predictability standpoint, I think that even those sectors would still have to question what's there and what they're going to get out of it. I guess there's.... As long as I've farmed—for 30-some years now—and as long as I continue to farm, or my family potentially may start to farm or something like that, we're going to see cyclical downturns. I think basically you want to look at something from a whole-farm production standpoint.
I think it's everybody's responsibility in a situation where you have a program like AgriInvest, where you can take those dollars, bank them away, and use them in times of downturns. You can use those dollars and you can manage the dollars according to the progress or lack thereof in your operation. I think in the long term, if you're having a lot of issues, you have to look hard at that business to see whether it's a viable business or not.
For the purposes of this discussion, too, I'll say that I married an accountant, and basically things are black and white; there is no grey. The situation is that the business has to sustain itself or it's not going to be there. Maybe that's my opinion, but I think business in general is of that opinion. We're all going to have cyclical downturns. How do you ready yourself for that?
From our standpoint, an AgriStability program in my sector—I'd like to let these fellows here talk about their sectors—a grains and oilseeds sector, certainly does not work very well.
