** In the current financial year, the Group exited some commitments regarding Apples and the value of some of the continuing Apple commitments were also revised downwards in line with the latest estimate of their cost of completion.

*** In the current financial year, the commitments with respect to Barley were revised downwards due to the change in the open market price and consequently the option for the Group to resell its commitment to the market.
