Joan, Sort of a "down so long it looks like up to me" scenario. But I do believe that the continued spread of Mad Cow Disease and some nasty stuff in seafood is making the vegetarian way of life more attractive to some. I only see a slight uptick in demand, but I also see many family farmers going belly up, which temporarily reduces supply. Any price increases will lead to lots of tractor sales and fertilizer purchases.
