I agree with Mireya, because Belle View Farms provides the fillings for Freddie's sandwiches and concerns about the poor wheat harvest would affect the cost of his bread.

Hmm, I'm not sure. I'm leaning towards B) Country Bakes and UK Systems Limited, since those are the two main external entities mentioned in the passage.

I think the correct answer is A) Belle View Farms and concerns about the poor wheat harvest. The question is about Harmon's organizational model, and the inputs to internal processes would be the suppliers and external factors affecting the business.
