Thanks for teaching me a new word (monopsony)! It's been a long while since my vocabulary has been increased with something that's not a millennial invention.

Farmers know that term very well. When the second loading ramp or grain elevator closes, and there's only one buyer left, farmers face a monopsony. Farmers have fought back with co-ops and Government price supports.
