I will ask for clarification if I may regarding what Mr. McCormack said about farmers needing to be told in May or June how much fertiliser they have left that they can buy. They need to be told by their distributor, whether it is Kerry Co-Operative Creameries or another co-operative, before they run out or they will have nothing to spread in July or August in terms of fertiliser, silage or whatever. Is Mr. McCormack telling me they know how much fertiliser I can have next year? Is that decided?
