Segment Reporting Disclosure [Text Block] | (17) Segment Information There are three reportable segments: agricultural products, pressurized vessels and modular buildings. The agricultural products segment fabricates and sells farming products as well as replacement parts for these products in the United States and worldwide. The pressurized vessel segment produces and services pressurized tanks. The modular building segment produces modular buildings for animal containment and various laboratory uses. The accounting policies applied to determine the segment information are the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies.

Approximate financial information with respect to the reportable segments is as follows.
