extremely small note about small-scale processors.

they are being regulated out of existence (joel salatin is one of the loudest voices about this, but not the only one) much more so than anything else.

the regulations are designed by and for consolidated, mega-operations, and small-scale processors invariably find themselves harrassed out of existence.

this is even true with stuff like locally produced baked goods or local sales of products made from fresh ingredients.
