It is a completely different tack compared to what we are used to in here regarding the agricultural side of things. Dr. Gilliland spoke about the media. He has a vision that agriculture in Ireland can sequester an awful lot more carbon while keeping the stock we have, and perhaps even having more. He is putting that out there as basically a new way of going forward, compared to all the other stuff we hear out there. How long does he believe it will take to attain this?
