I have a follow-up question about those alternative pathways and those identified within the Climate Action Plan 2021. Are any of those at scale yet? The challenge for farmers is that they are operating in a system that operates for them and provides a return. An alternative is going to need to do the same and hopefully in a far lower carbon way, possibly by sequestering or by having a net positive impact. Are any of these at scale or are they more or less pilot studies, possible options or prospects at this stage? Perhaps Mr. Callanan will give us a sense of that
