11、ons in 20222023 with unseasonably high rainfalls,it is in a highly fragile state.Many growers have low capital reserves and lack the ability to fund clean-up and replanting,and given the extreme nature of Cyclone Gabrielle,many of the losses,including crop yields and growing infrastructure on land(e
12、.g.,posts,wires)are not covered by traditional insurance.As a result,in the absence of interventions,the sector is not expected to fully rebuild.Without interventions it is estimated to lose$3.5 billion in cumulative value over 2024-2030,as investment into the sector is reduced and land is not regen

55、 conditions,including increased export costs,limited labour availability,more erratic weather,and reduced demand for apples from Europe(following restriction on sale of Apples into Russia creating saturated supply in Europe from local growers).9 These conditions have created volatile financial resul

57、e resulting impact on growers gearing ratios.Many growers have low capital reserves and will not be able to fund clean-up and replanting.Many losses,including crop yields and infrastructure on land(e.g.,posts,wires)are not covered by traditional insurance products.10 In the absence of interventions,
58、the sector is not expected to fully rebuild.As a base case,it will suffer from$3.5 billion in cumulative losses over 2024-2030 as land is not replanted or is put to lower value uses(e.g.,cropping or sheep farming)with lower capital outlay,and investment into the sector reduces.11 Losses may be highe

146、al loan program could be similar to the Small Business Administration disaster loans in the USA which allow businesses affected by natural disasters(e.g.,Hurricane Ida)to cover uninsured losses and business opex that could have been met had the disaster not occurred.These loans are to a maximum of$2

162、 increase the accessibility of these initiatives to wider value chain players post-Cyclone Gabrielle.29 Implement national plans and policies that consider increasing climate-related risks -Government support required to complete this solution:Regional and national government to lead risk mitigation
163、 and strategic planning following Cyclone Gabrielle.Plans and policies should consider the whole disaster life cycle preparation,mobilisation,respond and recovery.-How it could be implemented:These plans would follow other jurisdictions who have faced recent natural disasters such as the Victorian C
164、limate Adaptation Action Plan following the 2022 floods.This identified key climate risks and outlined a series of strategies to mitigate these risks across infrastructure,land use and governance.30 The Grow Back Better Plan outlined in this report offers a comprehensive blueprint that can guide the
165、 Hawkes Bay horticulture sector in its discussions with government and other stakeholders.By implementing these solutions,the sector can not only recover from the impacts of Cyclone Gabrielle but also build resilience for the future.This plan can also serve as a model for other industries and communities affected by natural disasters,providing a framework for effective recovery and sustainable growth.28 Coast Adapt Fact Sheet on Cyclone Yasi 29 Grant fund web pages,MBIE 30 Victoria Government web pages:Victorian Climate Adaptation Action Plan 20
