thank you Gerald for your encouraging words. These studies are a ton of work, not just for us but also the growers with whom we spend a lot of time going through the numbers.

Inflation of labor costs are a given for a lot of industries right now in the the USA, still for berries where these costs are an enormous part of production, this is going to be something really to watch.
