Thank you, Mr. Chairman.
I share your enthusiasm, gentlemen, and I think this is something society and government has to get behind so we can get to our targets as soon as possible.
I have three questions. I'll just give them all to you, and I'd like to hear various comments.
I'd like to know what the possible financial opportunities are for a combination plant for livestock by-products, which Mr. Wardrop can maybe answer, and things such as soya, canola, and wheat. Is there is potential for that, and what might the savings be? Now, I realize that transportation costs might override some of them, but I'd like to hear some comments on that to see if it's feasible.
Secondly, as far as the benefits of getting into the biofuel industry are concerned, we know there are going to be spinoffs for the environment and agriculture, those kinds of things. But what potential do any of you gentlemen see? If we get enough benefit for the agriculture sector, what, if any, long-term impact is that going to have on reducing the amount that government has to spend to support agriculture? So basically, I guess you're freeing up money to support this industry. I'd like to hear some comments on that.
And in reality, how fast can we actually expect to get to 25% or 50% here? Somebody said that Sweden is aiming for 100%. We're a long way from there, and we're just taking baby steps, but I'd like to hear some long-term thoughts on just how fast we can get there?
