I could see where that would get it down to the big 3 with one company having 80%, or more, control of beef, another with 80% control of pork, etc. It could leave one company exiting the business. I am more concerned with the ability of packers to keep plants closed. For example, Lexington plant is closed with no intention of reopening or selling asset so it could reopen.
