Michael Fitzmaurice: I will get back to Mr. McCormack on that bit. In fairness, if a person is importing fertiliser from somewhere else, they would have complied with their system of doing it. It is just that farmers need to know that there may be a difference. I am not saying and would never say that someone is mislabelling something, but just that farmers need to be aware. On nitrogen, you could be 100%...
