That is why I find tossing around the Fedco numbers a load of manure
best put into a garden plot.
I didn't quote any numbers.
Fedco asked its customers and apparently got response sufficient to guide
their course of action.
I do see a lot of "surveys" these days designed to produce a particular
result, i.e. the ubiquitous newsmax popups.



The numbers were quoted in Billy's post:

"We responded to the news by polling our customers. Should we drop the
Seminis/Monsanto line, phase it out, keep it but give it its own
customer code, or maintain it without change? We received an
unprecedented 1,157 responses. 54.8% voted for us to drop the
Seminis/Monsanto line immediately, and an additional 17% to phase it out
over time. "

In the scheme of things, not a huge number to be working with.
