Yeah but "some idea" is not enough for many of us including farmers who stay on-line for the latest reports.
Of course in regard to agricultural produce, many of us enjoy the live experience buying food. Was going to buy a white cabbage but upon examination it appeared green and odd shaped, the label stated (in dunnes stores

) 'Holland' - Wow, Ireland cannot produce its own cabbage, other days it's potatoes etc
Consulting on-line regarding the apparent deficit, we tend to get a fuller picture, a detailed accurate idea of current trends which can easily be compared with other times & places.
Never say no to education dear Fish.
