Agriculture committee  Mr. Orb, before we move on, do you have your translation selected as English?

Agriculture committee  Okay. Before we move on, because we have had a witness cancel in the second panel, we're going to extend this panel past the time. So, Mr. Perron, you'll have a second round to ask Mr. Orb some questions, if you want.

Agriculture committee  I understand the problem you have with that today. Mr. Johns, you have six minutes, please.

Agriculture committee  Thanks, Mr. Leslie. Time is up, Mr. Drouin. Thank you very much. Go ahead, Mr. Perron. You have six minutes.

Agriculture committee  Maybe we'll work—

Agriculture committee  That would have been Mr. Byrne on that, Monsieur Perron. Maybe you want to redirect while we figure out Mr. Orb's technology here.

Agriculture committee  Just give a quick answer if you can, please.

Agriculture committee  Thank you, Mr. Byrne. I appreciate that.

Agriculture committee  Thanks, Ms. Rood. I now turn it over to Mr. Drouin for six minutes.

Agriculture committee  Thank you, Mr. Leslie. You're done right on time. I appreciate that. We also have a couple of new additions to the committee—well, “old new” additions. I'd like to welcome Ms. Rood and Mr. Steinley to the Conservative bench on the committee. We look forward to working with you, of course.

Agriculture committee  Thank you, Mr. Orb. I also appreciate your patience with your technology and your microphone. I'd also like to welcome Mr. Johns to the committee today. He's subbing in for Mr. MacGregor, who I'm sure is out celebrating at the grocery store with his motion today. We have Mr.

Agriculture committee  Thank you very much, Mr. Byrne. You are certainly welcome to make a submission to the committee as well, if that's something you think would be beneficial. We will now turn it over to Mr. Orb for five minutes, please.

Agriculture committee  Colleagues, we'll call the meeting to order. Thank you for everyone's patience. Obviously we need to ensure that the translators are able to understand our witnesses, certainly for our francophone colleagues on the committee. Everyone has been tested, and we should be all good to go.

Agriculture committee  Thanks, Mr. Chair. I have one quick question for Ian or Dennis. Has any work been done on the impact on yields? We're talking about food production and food security here. If we reduce fertilizer emissions by 30% from where we are now, what would be the impact on commodities and yields?

Agriculture committee  Thanks. Mr. Thompson, would you have any data on that?
