Market Farming

[Alex McGregor <waldenfarm AT sprintmail.com>]

Thanks for pointing out this reality.  It seems that everything in ag 
regulations and marketing is designed with the ag corporations' scale in 
mind.  The result of this is shutting the small and medium sized growers out 
of the established markets.

Whether this is done intentionally or through ignorance and/or stupidity is 
debatable.  The results are not.
