Disclaimer & legal information
This translation is provided for convenience only. In case of doubt, the German version shall prevail.
1. Nature of the information provided
All harvest forecasts, analyses and data provided by OrchardCast are model-based, indicative regional information. We give no guarantee that particular harvest volumes, ripening dates or market prices will actually materialise. The mathematical and physiological models represent biological potential as well as weather- and climate-related effects. They are probability estimates based on aggregated data.
2. No operational recommendations
The information provided serves solely for general market assessment and market transparency. It expressly does not constitute operational recommendations for farms, growers or processors (such as specific measures for frost protection, irrigation volumes, fertilisation, crop protection or the scheduling of harvest dates). Operational decisions always require an individual professional assessment on site.
3. No financial market statements
We publish exclusively factual regional data on agricultural production and yield development. Our reports and communications expressly contain no buy or sell recommendations and no investment advice or financial market analyses relating to individual listed companies, shares or commodity futures contracts (in particular within the meaning of Article 20 of the Market Abuse Regulation – MAR).
4. Limitation of liability
We accept unlimited liability only in cases of intent, gross negligence and culpable injury to life, body or health. In the event of a slightly negligent breach of essential contractual obligations (cardinal obligations), our liability is limited to the foreseeable damage typical of the contract. Otherwise, liability for slight negligence is excluded.
