Modern scholars have even less of an excuse for prevarication. Peter Solar calculated that on the eve of the Famine Ireland produced sufficient food for 9.5 to 10m people; during the years 1846–50 it produced little more than half that amount. Austin Bourke showed that food imports were considerably in excess of exports during the Famine years, though a ban on exports during the autumn of 1846 might have eased food shortages. Food exports during the autumn and winter of 1846 were equivalent to one-tenth of the potatoes lost... [Kinealy] seems to imply that Mitchel's case is more credible than recent scholars suggest; few would agree.</q></cite><span title="ctx_ver=Z39.88-2004&rft_val_fmt=info%3Aofi%2Ffmt%3Akev%3Amtx%3Ajournal&rft.genre=article&rft.jtitle=Irish+Historical+Studies&rft.atitle=Historians+and+the+Famine%3A+A+Beleaguered+Species%3F&rft.volume=30&rft.issue=120&rft.pages=591-601&rft.date=1997&rft.issn=0021-1214&rft_id=https%3A%2F%2Fapi.semanticscholar.org%2FCorpusID%3A163627192%23id-name%3DS2CID&rft_id=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.jstor.org%2Fstable%2F60000023%23id-name%3DJSTOR&rft_id=info%3Adoi%2F10.1017%2FS002112140001347X&rft.aulast=Daly&rft.aufirst=Mary+E.&rft_id=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.jstor.org%2Fstable%2F60000023&rfr_id=info%3Asid%2Fen.wikipedia.org%3AGreat+Famine+%28Ireland%29" class="Z3988"></span></span> </li> <li id="cite_note-128"><span class="mw-cite-backlink"><b><a href="#cite_ref-128">^</a></b></span> <span class="reference-text">Kinealy, Christine.
