The research, science and measurement tools will be really important. We are doing a lot of work in that regard. Other member states and other countries across the world are putting a lot of effort into this also. Getting the measuring tools right and accurate represents an important starting point. The infrastructure that needs to be put in place to allow for carbon to be traded and monetised will be important.
There is a lot of potential, as we are very much aware. We are investing in the research that will allow what I talk about to come to fruition, reach its potential and, importantly, ensure an additional income stream for farmers.
