What if the Weather Doesn't Work Out?

The maple syrup industry has a quota system in place to ensure price stability. The federation also dictates how much you, as a sugar maker can make each sugaring season. If there's a low production here, the federation taps at that reserve and they release a controlled amount of syrup into out into the world. Some people love this set up because it makes it easier to predict future years. But others had a problem with thus other maple syrup producers who were not just like outside observers with economic policy acts to grind.
