If it is okay with the Chair, I have one final short question. We cannot overlook the fact that we exported €19.5 billion worth of agrifood last year and that more than 150,000 people are employed in the businesses. In all of this debate, we have to find a way in which we do not substantially lose those jobs or those farms. Do the witnesses have an opinion on that?
