$46.49 a ton fixed costs? About $1000 per "fixed costs" & labor & energy? MALE BOVINE FECAL MATTER. That is about the coops gross $$ per ton  with $.42 sugar..   I like how coops like to put a lot of other costs into how they figgure "fixed costs".  How are the coops going to live with a $20-30 a ton gross as 40% of net sugar for their share? 
 
 But if you tell a lie long enough, growers will start to belive it.  
 The $46.49 is closer to their fixed costs per share for the factory..... But the office's fixed costs are more than the factory's.
