Here, I think, research is critical, as is adaptation and adoption of that new research by the industry. We were fascinated to find out about a research program under way at the Lethbridge agricultural research station, where they're working to develop a particular feed additive that would significantly reduce emissions of methane from cattle. When it comes to GHG emissions, of course, we spend a lot of time talking about carbon and carbon dioxide, but here are other gases as well, and methane is certainly one of those.
The research is ongoing. Now, the question becomes, is it effective? If it is effective, then does it make economic sense for producers to adopt that new technology? A lot of work is already taking place in that area. Of course, the Beef Cattle Research Council, which is the industry's largest research organization, is currently setting its next five-year strategic plan. I'm sure that such issues on the environmental front would be a key part of that as well.
Continued support of industry research and partnering with industry to make advancements in this area are critical.
