Just to get this clear in my head, I wish to establish what Enterprise Ireland is open to. I have talked to many organic farmers doing organic milk. They were saying that it goes into the same place as every other bit of milk. This is what happens in many cases, but not in all. If these organic farmers were to have their own small set-up in this regard, a co-operative or whatever, would Enterprise Ireland be open to supporting the purchase of dryers and other equipment to progress this market, if such an organisation were to put forward a credible business plan?
