That's a tenfold, a $20 chicken is $200.

Okay.

So,

We cover an acre with 600.

We move them every day, chickens across the pasture.

They're in little, you know, floorless shelters to protect them from predators.

Move them across the pasture every day.

And 600 birds cover one acre, you know, in the course of several weeks that they're out there.

These are meat chickens, not laying chickens.

And so if you had two acres and you could raise 1,200 of these,

and you could sell chicken pot pie to your neighbors as a convenience food, you could take those 1,200 chickens times 200 is $240,000.

You could make a living on two acres selling a convenience food straight out of your home kitchen.

A good living if we had a food emancipation proclamation.

The problem is farmers, entrepreneurial farmers, who are ready to value add.

These are not commodity farmers.

These are people, I mean, some big farmers, little farmers, all in between, that view themselves as entrepreneurs as opposed to just, you know, raising corn for the man, all right?

I run in, there are thousands and thousands and thousands of them around this country that are ready to access their neighborhoods with well-made products

unadulterated convenience food, but it's, but it's illegal.

Absolutely.

So you solve it by limiting it to direct sale.
