Mr. Christal mentioned more than ten people being employed earlier, or something like that. Why is there this type of a threshold when we are looking at markets that may need a significant injection of funds? I am talking about the organic milk area. Not every farmer in Ireland is going to do this, first of all. If we go to the conventional places, they will give 60 cent per litre. It might be possible to get way more in a small place that is making cheeses or doing something different. Does Enterprise Ireland look at this aspect at all?
