Will we get full credit if, by using digestate, we reduce our chemical nitrogen by whatever percentage Mr. Caslin is talking about? The previous witnesses were very strong about the value of the digestate and the nutrient value that it would contain. I was surprised at the figures they gave regarding the nutrient value and the consistency of the product that would be produced. If we reduce chemical nitrogen by a certain percentage, will that go into the balance sheet for the reduction of the emissions from the agricultural sector?
