Thank you, Mr. Chair, and thank you to the witnesses for your excellent testimony.

I'd like to begin with Fertilizer Canada. The 30% target in greenhouse gas emissions from fertilizer applications mirrors a similar target announced by the EU. Can you comment a bit about the science around the base that we're starting from? Can we assume that here in Canada we're starting from the same base that the EU is basing their targets on?
