David Carter, the minister at the office of Primary Industries, said that a decion is due to be made soon, Radio New Zealand reported.
If the outbreak is declared an adverse event, it could mean increased financial and social support for growers, including emergency unemployment benefits, flexible tax requirements and recovery coordinators.
