Last year they said “...despite the tough hurricane season that prevailed during the year and which materially adversely impacted sales volumes,"

Likely to be a recurring issue?

Would a once in a lifetime event wipe out a decent number of the frees they collect the seeds from?

I guess you hit the nail on its head. We better get used to powerful storms - and, as we know, once in 100 year events or once in a lifetime events tend to happen more and more frequently.

Better invest in industries which benefit from an increase of extreme weather events than hope for the weather to calm down again ...

Thats where my concern has come from. I was seeing a storm come in and wipe out my investment. I'm a little calmer now. Now thinking of how many trees will be blown down that will need replanting.

With bigger stronger trees that don’t blow down aye?

Although the nurseries look to be in the flight path the ones most at risk are at least 1 - 2 hours drive inland. Shrinking the world to fit on your phone is deceiving. Hurricanes subside on landfall so mainly the coastal areas that get demolished.

Fingers crossed our supply will meet demand this coming season

I see the NZSA is voting AGAINST the increase in directors fees. They also raise concerns about the size of the board with regards the size of the company.

My voice of displeasure was scanned through to Comp'share today (and accepted in that format). As well as the snout in the trough item, I also voted against 2 directors being appointed.

I suggest anyone who still wants to get their vote/proxy in before Saturday, scan them to Computershare.

Hers an idea to save 2 directors and share payment.

Ditch the Rubicon website
use the arborgen website http://www.arborgen.com/
Add an "investor relations" section on thebottom

Have remaining board concentrate on governance around selling trees

(my fee of 100,000 shares will follow)

Arborgen need to breed a fast growing 7 foot tree
