    How does the company manage commodity price swings?

    The price and availability of cereal grains can fluctuate sharply due to farm yield, weather patterns, and government farm subsidies. Wheat, corn, and oat prices routinely swing 10 percent or more from year-to-year. Price and supply instability isn't...
