I do not wish Mr. Curley to get me wrong. I am not in any way attempting to shoot the messenger. I am asking these questions to get my own head around the issue. I know we are probably on the one page. Will land that is already drained and used for grazing not be far less poached than land that is wetted and still used for grazing? A lot more carbon could be released if the water level is allowed to rise where sheep or cattle are grazing the land. Would the land be poached a lot more by virtue of the hooves of the cattle breaking the soil, because it is softer underfoot?
