Thanks, Chair, and let me also add my voice of welcome to the panel for taking the time to share your thoughts with us this afternoon.
I have kind of a general question for the panel.
Agriculture now has a degree of profitability that hasn't been evident for a number of years. How do you see the industry continuing to grow and profit? What specific things do you see that should be addressed, and how will they be addressed so that at the end of the day there are a few more dollars in the jeans of the folks who are out on the farm?
