It would a p p e a r th a t, using the y e a r to d ate fig u re of 7 ,9 6 6 tons, a seasonallxed adjusted budget fo r this y ear could reach 65,000 ton, o r alm ost 19,000 ton m ore than the budget. At the m om ent th is figure may be a little too optim istic, but th e next two o r th re e month w ill confirm it.
