So I spoke directly face to face with them in my office this week. Two concerns. One's the price of barley. Clearly it's a commodity. It is at the mercies of global prices. The prices [of barley] right now are very low. They're beyond break even. They're losing money right now in barley and wheat production. Number two is the price of fertilizer. Their input costs keep going up. We've seen significant increases in fertilizer costs. (09:26–09:31)
