Dear Mr. Bruce Evans, the presentation is very good. Yes, by improving biosecurity, proper cleaning & disinfection, improving micro-environment of broilers in close houses, clean water, high quality feed, properly managed vaccination program, proper litter management, proper disease monitoring and better management of infrastructure of close houses, we have managed to bring down FCR to 1.6, mortality to 2.8% with a density of about 0.46 squire foot. I think we have fallen in line with what you discussed in the presentation.
