and how they utilize that and how they share that information with one another and how this is one system? MK: That was spot on. This is what’s been such an exciting journey for me in the last 12 years is I’m all about fundamental change. It’s really easy to list all of the things that are wrong, but it’s really cool to look at issues and provide solutions and then see when things are starting to go right. And I think you’re completely right about agriculture and research and also preserving and supporting our agricultural lands. We are not creating new soil. I cannot say this enough. We are not creating new soil. So if our producers, if our growers who are stewards of the land, if they cannot support their family, their operations, their livelihood, if
they lose that and we don’t support them, they will have to sell that land. And that land may potentially go out of production. We’re losing a fairly substantial amount of agricultural lands every year. So I think if we look to producers and we thank them, right, thank you for preserving this soil that can feed an entire world, it’s really powerful. So I think that’s why a lot of the growers are so willing to be early adopters of technology and innovations. To learn more about Bio S.I. and their range of products, visit www.biositechnology.com.
