Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Ms. Beck, there was a previous exchange about some of the gaps that exist with regard to monitoring emissions in the sector and in your department. On the other hand, you have a pretty good data indicator for soil organic matter. You can see the maps of Canada's agricultural soils and the relative change over time. Some regions have had a significant net increase in soil organic carbon matter. I also want to put this in the context that there's a highly anticipated Senate agriculture committee study on soils, which is going to be tabled in the very near future, I understand.
In what ways can we use the soil carbon sequestration measurement? I think farmers would like more of their good work to be recognized in policy. Are there any innovative ways that the department is looking at as a way of rewarding farmers for the good work they're doing? Are there other countries around the world that we can learn from? I know Australia has a national soil strategy. Add anything you can on that, please.
