Trees lost in delivery (count)
Definition
For each acknowledged consignment and each species and container size on it or on the dispatch it received, the trees sent minus the living trees the recipient confirms having received, summed. The trees sent are the dispatch’s for that species and size when it has them, otherwise the consignment line’s own quantity; living trees confirmed are zero for a species and size the consignment does not list, so a line packed and never delivered counts in full. It covers stock dead on arrival and stock lost between nursery and site, and is attributed to the delivery, never to the site.
purpose
To show how many trees a nursery and its delivery lost before any site could plant them, per nursery, site and species.
rationale
Dead stock at delivery was the gap between trees received and trees alive that no site could have prevented; counting it against the delivery keeps it out of the site’s planting rate and names the nursery it came from.
