purely technical breakout today?, page-8

"Its a non-issue for CCF as Myrtle Rust is not in WA, not likely to come to WA, doesn't like WA (heat) and unlikely to spread to the isolated plantations if it did come to WA"

Its not a non issue! The fact of the matter is Myrtle Rust came to Australia from South America!! Heat is no barrier to rust, a lack of suitable hosts is. There are suitable hosts all over Australia in the bush. The outbreak on the East Coast has spread from Queensland to Melbourne in under 2 years ... that is lightning quick.


"If the very unlikely became reality then they would simply control it by spraying on any areas that were affected."

Could the carbon sink plays afford the estimated $300/ha control cost and still generate profits out of their plantations? I highly doubt it ...
