IAS 41 — Biological assets growing on bearer plants
Date recorded:
Issue
In March 2017, the IC discussed whether there are circumstances in which an entity cannot reliably measure the fair value of growing produce. In particular, the issue centred on whether fruit growing on oil palms could be considered to be an example of a biological asset for which an entity might rebut the fair value presumption set out in IAS 41.30.
Decision not to add
June 2017

Please see our Interpretations Committee meeting notes for the discussion of the issue and the June 2017 IFRIC Update for the final wording of the decision.
