00:00What my reality is, is that while crop prices are depressed and they're down about 15 to 20%
00:09for corn and soybeans since 2021, kind of the COVID pandemic, we're also seeing an inflation
00:16on our input costs. Herbicides, a lot of those are imported from China. We've got fertilizers
00:22that are imported from Canada. We really want to see that stuff opened up to allow us to run our
00:27business. Really, that bridge is just what it says it is. It's a bridge. It's not the ultimate solution
00:34we're looking for. What we really want to have is a little more certainty and not have to rely on these
00:39ad hoc payments. And there's a little bit of magic that's involved with the faith that it takes to put
00:46a little bit of fertilizer and some seed out there and seeing that grow, hopefully your risks pay off
00:53and bringing that crop in.
