You thought that inflation was under control, but one area in particular, we are very susceptible to increased inflation. And I'm so concerned, in fact, that I asked my team here at Nutrient Survival to take a look at our inventory levels of a number of our grain-based ingredients. And I'll talk about grain-based ingredients in a second. But those in particular, where we're low, I've asked them to get things back up to 12 months worth of raw ingredients. Get them up. Now, let me tell you why. This is about supply and demand, food supply and food demand. The more supply, the lower the prices. The less supply, the higher the prices. This is economics. Demand works the same way. The lower the demand, the lower the prices. The higher the demand, the higher the prices. So let's set demand off to the side and assume that it just stays relatively constant. I just want to talk to you about food supply. So first, let me break it down and talk to you about the conditions in the United States. So the good news, the good news, is that this morning the USDA released its take on the latest U.S. Drought Monitor Drought Report. That is a mouthful. And they said that western states are in less of a drought, less of a drought, than in recent months, in recent years. And living out west, out here in northern Nevada, the Reno-Tahoe area, I still see snow on the mountains of the Sierra Nevada. And it's from this past winter. It is amazing. It's mid-July and there's still snow out there. And that's great because as that snowpack melts, it keeps our lakes and our reservoirs full. And that means irrigation out here is in relatively good shape. And we have some very rich, fertile growing areas that are just to the west of us in California's Central Valley. And that means that irrigation is going to keep the Central Valley relatively green. Now that's important because we get 20% of our fruits and vegetables from California's Central Valley. That's a big deal. But on the flip side,(...) conditions remain extremely dry in the plain states like Kansas and Nebraska.(...) And here(...) we've seen severe or worse drought conditions affecting up to 55% of these states.(...) Now, Kansas in particular, as many call it, is the wheat state. So truly it is our country's bread basket. The United States bread basket is Kansas. And for decades, the reason it earned that name is because Kansas led the nation in wheat production. And for that matter, the U.S. led the world in wheat exports. But this year, it's going to be different because Kansas flower mills are actually set to buy wheat grown from Eastern Europe. So hold that thought because this was a report from early June. And a lot of things have changed. But back then, Aaron Harry's, who is the vice president of research and operations at Kansas Wheat, that's an organization that helps manage and represent wheat interests, he said that this has never happened before. This is, he said this is truly unfortunate. It's another hit against our domestic farmers. So usually the high plains, as folks who live out there know, it's dry in the best of times. But for the last two years, there's been a very deep drought that has withered much of this prime wheat producing region. And this year's Kansas wheat harvest is shaping up to be the smallest since 1957.(...) And it's much the same in Oklahoma. The crop is so poor, some farmers are actually killing their poor producing fields with herbicide, believe it or not, herbicide to contain their losses, because they'd rather collect crop insurance instead. Now hear me, I'm not mad at farmers. I love farmers.(...) Farmers need to survive. They need to feed their families. They need, they need to live to fight another day this year. And I respect American farmers. My grandpa was a dairy farmer in Wisconsin. My father grew up on that farm.(...) You know, I know many, many farmers from back east in Maryland, when I was in agriculture, with poultry production, and there were farmers who were growing corn and soy in the region that I lived in, I had corn fields surrounding my home out there. These are hard working, good people. I actually wish everyone had a little farmer in them, maybe a lot of farmer, that would be awesome. But these farmers are having to make hard choices.
