Australian workers chop down 140 trees in 13-year-long study

“The research plot was planted in a scientific pattern to allow the
measurement of the spread of an unknown pathogen thought to cause Mundulla
Yellows disease,” the statement of claim says.

“The university’s research … is wholly lost and incapable of being made
good except by replanting the research plot on a scale at least 50 per cent
larger than the research plot destroyed.”

The contractor said it was not responsible for the actions of its
subcontractors but denied that the university issued orders not to enter the
plot, according to a report in The Adelaide Advertiser.

The university has claimed that two trees were originally cut down in 2008,
leading to an official order banning workers from entering the research plot
without being accompanied by a university staff member.
