Fruit orchards in Perry have been damaged by mule deer that come through and rub against young trees. The Utah Wildlife Board has rejected a request from one Perry fruit grower to be compensated for the reduced future harvests caused by this damage.
The fruit grower got no sympathy from the panel’s seven members, who unanimously rejected Eskelsen’s request for compensation connected to reduced harvests in the future.
DWR characterized the demand as “crop insurance,” arguing Eskelsen’s model was too speculative to rely upon for calculating the orchard’s true losses. “We interpret the statute discussing future loss to mean when the crop would have been taken to market in the year the damage occurred,” Dearth said. “We request the Legislature to clarify this statute for its inconsistencies.”
“I don’t think that the landowner’s [Eskelsen’s] petition was reasonable by any measure. We need to protect state resources and wildlife from some of those abuses,” Snider said. “I’m fully supportive of agriculture and am active agriculture myself, but I think that relationship between wildlife and landowners needs to be a partnership and when one potential partner abuses that, we have to step in.
Eskelsen’s father Richard acquired the orchard property in 1982 and it came with 125 mature apricot trees when Todd took it over a few years ago. In 2019, he added 3,000 fruit trees in the hopes of going into commercial production within the 7 years it takes such trees to bear fruit.
