Paul your examples are well taken,

One must remember that 2007 is going to be a record crop and is not a avg 
crop.

Also, the planting of trees per acre has risen greatly , all most to a hedge

So,  has the yield gone up twenty five percent or is there more trees per 
acres, and indirectly producing the same.
