CRISPR-Cas9 Gene Editing: Discussion
Mr. John Spink:
These are all of the other things. There has to be the combining capacity, which we would probably have if we have a decent harvest. However, if we get a very wet and broken harvest, would we have the capacity? In addition, there is the cleaning and drying. We have the storage capacity, but the cleaning and drying would be another issue. If there were good harvesting conditions and you were bringing it in dry, there would not be a problem. However, if we hit a bad harvest, we could be bunched.
