I thank the witnesses for the opening remarks. I have a couple of questions, particularly on the point Mr. Murphy made about the market rewarding low cost over low carbon. It is something that is becoming pertinent of late because of rising food prices. Does the sector see that perhaps the value of food in this country has been undervalued in terms of the prices farmers, as price takers, are receiving and that it is not reflected in the actions that have to be taken, on climate in particular, over the next decade and beyond?
