The idea behind the presentation is that we have to focus on clusters, but that we also have to remember funding for basic long-term research. There should still be core funding for basic research, because it is more difficult for us to find 25% in funding for this type of research. We feel that the government has a responsibility towards the basic component of research. The usefulness of clusters could then be applied more quickly to farms.
