Thank you.
One of the sticking points we discussed with the grocers earlier relates to producers' associations, including vegetable growers' associations. Those producers said they have small operations and do not have the resources the big supermarket chains have and are not represented by teams of lawyers.
In the case of systemic issues in particular, that is, issues that arise frequently, those small companies would like to be represented by their association.
I would like to hear your opinion on that. Don't you think that might make things easier? The number of disputes might drop off if there were a dozen producers, for instance, dealing with the same problem. Their association could represent them. That would also help maintain the anonymity of those small producers.
What are your thoughts?
