Let me ask one question. In a nutshell, it is being stated that instead of having a cow capable of producing 6,500 l or 7,000 l of milk, people should opt for those capable of producing 10,000 l to 12,000 l. The latter will probably be the type of cows people will opt for if we lose our derogation. Would that be fair?
