I thank Mr. Dillon. The comment on grazing in the mountains and hills was fascinating. I wonder whether Senators, Deputies and the farming community as a whole are aware that organic animals can graze alongside non-organic animals up on the hills. I was not aware of it. There is a hell of a difference between the price of organic lamb and non-organic or regular lamb.
