Thank you, Mr. Chair.

I certainly appreciate the witnesses before us, tonight.

My first question is for Dr. Stanford.

We know the five major food retailers own 80% of the market. Have you done the same analysis with the food processors? Is it a bit more split or diversified than it is on the food retailer side?
