Oh bother... I voted, then read... and see I should have stuck to only 2..

And I don't see how to change my vote.

Well... my top 2

Are 1. cost reduction and 2. producing quality highly nutritious food.

I didn't see the instructions either for the top 2. All applied. But for me the order is
1 --- know what I am eating
2 --- being prepared
3 --- cut costs
4 ---not relying on others
5 --- additional income
6 --- seeing and enjoying the fruits of my labor.
