Critics of this tendency argue that corporate concentration gives lesser choice to producers, small processors and retailers, workers, and consumers in the market place.

You should use at least three relevant chapters from the text book (here's the textbook link: https://www.dropbox.com/sh/yo769hma0c0pjrm/AAD4_X-4EOXk1q242yNuCPC-a?dl=0 ) and at least three external academic sources.
