I am making a general point. The trend in the last decade has surprised me and possibly most people, where it is heading in a particular direction. Is it possible to say how much of the €13.7 billion of exports from Ireland went to the primary producer? That is a very legitimate question for 2018. Out of the €13.7 billion of cheques written to Ireland for the food products we exported, how much of that did the primary producer get and how much did the processors get? Does Mr. Gleeson get my point?
