2008 Assess the quantum of economic loss incurred by a Riverina irrigator as a result of a water supply failure. The supply issues arose at a critical time in a crop produced in 2005/06 so no physical evidence was available. Detailed water modelling and weather records were used to demonstrate crop demand was greater than actual water supplied during the season the crop was produced. On behalf of a group of twenty irrigators, prepare a detailed critique of Water Sharing Plan. The critique encompassed a review of all aspects of the water sharing plan including financial comparison, the science underpinning the plan, and the entitlement reduction methodology. The report assessed the quantum of economic impact on each to assess of the Water Sharing Plan. 2007
- Expert Witness - Agricultural Loss Assessment
Prepare a detailed report assessing the quantum of economic loss incurred by an irrigator affected by groundwater entitlement reduction. Heads of Consideration assessed future annual losses and balance sheet impacts. On behalf of a Utility assess the impact of irrigation bore failure on a large Riverina irrigation property. The assessment included consideration of the quantum of economic losses incurred to existing and planned crops and a reviewl of mitigating strategies employed and which could have been employed by the farmer. Detailed water budgets were compiled to assess a range of actual and possible scenarios. Prepare a detailed quantum of economic loss assessment for a landholder disadvantaged in a surface water entitlement allocation process. Heads of consideration were prepared covering past and future losses and balance sheet impacts. Mitigation actions and costs were assessed. Prepare a detailed quantum of economic loss assessment for a pastoralist in northern Australia. The loss incurred was related to the compulsory acquisition of a portion of a property of greater strategic importance to the property’s operation. Heads of Consideration were used to define all areas of loss including operational and balance sheet items. Mitigation actions were reviewed and costed. Provide detailed critique of Expert Witness reports assessing the quantum of economic loss incurred by a large scale dairy producer due to the failure of high tech irrigation equipment. Economic loss assessment calculations and assumptions were appraised and measured against published technical data. The matter was settled at meditation for an undisclosed amount with the defendant’s admitting viability. 2006
- Agricultural Loss Assessment
A Riverina based private irrigator was impacted by a disrupted water supply during a critical time in the crop production cycle. An assessment of the quantum of economic loss incurred by the disrupted water supply was prepared. The report findings were presented to all stakeholders at a round table meeting held to consider the impacts and discuss solutions. 2005
- Expert Witness - Agricultural Loss Assessment
On behalf of a major loss assessment firm assessing a citrus spray damage litigation case, a property inspection was conducted two years after the incident. The assessment considered examination of the remaining evidence and a review of relevant production data which was compared to regional production information. 2004
- Expert Witness Agricultural Loss Assessment
In relation to a dispute between a Riverina based irrigator and irrigation bore service provider, two (2) parallel agricultural expert reports for the plaintiff were critiqued. An assessment of the quantum of economic losses incurred when the irrigation bore failure was prepared. The assessment included detailed scenario analyses and water budgeting. Back to Projects page
