It would be less. There are approximately four round bales in one of the big square bales.
Let me give the exact figures on the aid so members will be very clear. The contributions towards international transport costs, which will be reflected in the price charged to farmers, will be €50 for the 8x4x4 bale, the large bale, €30.50 for the 8x4x3 bale, €25 for the 8x4x2 bale, and €25 for the small 4x4 bale. The contribution for the round bale would be approximately €33.
