I know that the Minister for Agriculture, Food and the Marine is particularly concerned about the fodder situation and has set up a national committee to work with the farming community regarding the fodder shortage. That is in place and Teagasc has had a number of meetings to seek to address the issue, and to help farmers better budget and plan their fodder provision.

I do not know about the other question raised by the Deputy and will ask the Minster for Agriculture, Food and the Marine to respond to him.
