Well, simple question, and it seems to demand a simple answer, but of course, that requires a commitment, and of course commitments and simple answers are no fun. I would prefer to couch my reply in more elaborate and non-commital political-style response paramaters (whatever that means) that eliminate the personal leverage factors that can be so misleading. What does it matter if I should buy it? I could be wrong and/or buy it because of the salesman's tie, instead of a cool analysis of the practical elements leading to a rationale of gain. (80% of female voters cited as reason for voting for a candidate that the colour (eng. sp.) of his eyes matched his tie.) I will leave you with an analysis given to me by Alberto,(Bugs), Bauney, the famous tuber agronomist, who lived a classically simple lifestyle of the homeless lapin in sub basement sans roof (a hole in the ground sometimes called a burrow, possibly in protest against man's inhumanity to lapins. (fierce aboriginal races of central Europe have made lapins central to their diet.) The formula for ROI given daucus carota/hectare is dependent on market penetration, and psyche perceptions of benefit/marginal utility in the consumer mind. It is quite complex. It resists simplistic derivation, but supply demand curves impressed upon weather patterns, and the marginal utility of the carrot may be useful as a starting point. It is the agronomists faint hope that this will supply local demand that is a straight-line, inelastic curve at some desirable angle close to the horizontal. In other words, grow more per hectare, make more money. carrotmuseum.co.uk Generally anything over 0.5 carrots per tonne of material is useful to sort through. Again, it depends on the colour of the salesman's tie. What does John Kaiser say? EC<:-}
