I hear him. I will move on. I put a scenario to him, just to strip the whole thing back and keep it as simple possible. Let us say that 20 ha of land comes up for sale in Graiguenamanagh, County Kilkenny, on the Kilkenny and Carlow border, where I am from. A company, an individual or a farmer decides they are going to buy this package of land and they are going to plant it. Will the Minister of State break down simply and from an individual or company perspective what income they would receive for planting per hectare?
