If a farmer enhances their traceability with our blockchain, and that results in the farmer receiving a higher price on packing or export, they get some grant money. So we continue to work on finding ways for farmers to make a little bit more money. They write what the price they received was. We track the locations of those processing facilities so that we can have traceability all the way through.
