The proportion of standing crop destroyed by wildfire each year across the estate. In a ten-year rotation the crop is exposed to a decade of fire seasons, so even a low annual rate compounds into real risk.
Managed plantation estates aim to hold average annual wildfire loss well under 1–2% of standing crop through prevention, detection and rapid suppression.
Forest Products Commission WA ↗Fire is the catastrophic tail risk of a long-dated crop: a decade of growth can be lost in an afternoon. Tracking losses and near-misses drives investment in the breaks, access and detection that keep the estate insurable and the crop growing.
Silo pulls each of these from the sources the operation already uses, and keeps the figure current automatically.
Maintain firebreaks, low-fuel buffers and all-weather access.
Invest in early detection and a rapid first-attack capability.
Coordinate fire planning with neighbours and the local brigade.
