IASC approves new standard on agriculture
14 Dec 2000
The IASC Board has approved a new Standard on Agriculture.
IAS 41 will require that
all biological assets (animals, crops, orchards, forests, etc.) be measured at fair value, with the change in fair value reported in net profit or loss, unless fair value cannot be estimated reliably. Agricultural produce would similarly be measured at fair value at the point of harvest.
