I'm very happy to take that question. It works like this: there is an imbalance in the playing field between the farmers and millers. In any cane-farming community, there is but one miller. It's a monopoly. We do not want the situation where milling companies, particularly foreign-owned multinational milling companies, skewer the market so that farmers just have to do what they're told.
