Thank you, Chair.
Thank you, witnesses, for being here this morning, and I really appreciate the passionate testimony we're seeing here today.
You talked about best practices, Mr. Bryans, and I think you'll be glad to hear that there was a new introduction yesterday of new best practices, learning from the experiences of last year and the years before and building on that. That's something that I think is always in the farmer's interest, to learn from experiences in the past and to share that knowledge amongst themselves and move forward.
The national farm-level biosecurity standard was actually put together through partnerships with honeybee, bumblebee, and alfalfa leafcutter bees. So again taking the knowledge that they have today, learning from what they learned last year, Mr. Scarlett, can you give me some idea of how that came together and how you expect that's going to change things?
