One key element is missing from this presentation. These forecasts all end in December of 2012. These do not just cover a period until the year of 2012. There is a big difference in these references which also affect the accuracy of your report. Next time you have to make sure that you report all of the highlightable information in the summary overview. Additionally, make sure to use at least 3 sentences in the summary so that you avoid any GRA deductions in relation to long sentences.

Information for Turkey is also incomplete. What were the starting measurements? Additionally, pork and broilers have an overlap in measurements that you should be reporting in the comparison portion as well.
