I have a final question. I see different figures for our targets for organic production. Does Teagasc have a breakdown per hectare of the percentage reduction in emissions following the move to organic production in each of the sectors? Does it know the emissions saved if a beef farm moves to organic production? The same applies in dairy, tillage, etc.
