I mean, they will say it's about safety.

But ultimately, if you start drilling down, it's actually about controlling market access.

And so what we have right now is we have a real problem in American agriculture in our aging farmer.

Our farmers are now 60 years old.

In the next 15 years, that's one five, 15 years, half of all America's agriculture equity will change hands.

That's never happened in any civilization in peace.

It's only happened in conquest.

You know, the Huns come in and take over Rome.

The Polynesians come, okay.

Well, the problem is that when old people can't get out, or when young people can't get in, old people can't get out.

Yes.

And so these farmers continue to age, age, age.

And you're right.

We hear the word, you know, regenerative farming now over and over and over again.

Well, you know, when somebody asked me about regenerative farming, you know, they're thinking soil and earthworms and all that stuff.

My first reaction is, is it attractive to young people?

I'm well, I'm second generation.

Our son now is third generation.

He operates it.

But it doesn't have to be family.
