____________________ (1)Primarily represents other charges associated with restructuring activities, including third-party costs. Other income, if applicable, primarily represents favorable developments on previously recorded exit costs and recoveries associated with restructuring. (2)Primarily represents asset write-offs (recoveries) and accelerated depreciation on long-lived assets, which were or are to be abandoned. To the extent incurred, the acceleration effect of re-estimating settlement dates and revised cost estimates associated with asset retirement obligations due to facility shutdowns, are also included within the asset disposal charges. Project Focus In response to the unprecedented downturn in the global crop protection market that resulted in severe channel destocking, which materially impacted volumes in 2023, we initiated a global restructuring plan, referred to as "Project Focus." This program is designed to right-size our cost base and optimize our footprint and organizational structure with a focus on driving significant cost improvement and productivity. We expect the plan to be fully executed by the end of 2025. During the six months ended June 30, 2024, charges incurred related to Project Focus include $37.5 million of severance and employee separation costs, including costs associated with the previously announced CEO transition, $18.7 million of professional service provider costs and other miscellaneous charges associated with the project, and accelerated depreciation of $8.2 million on assets identified for disposal in connection with the restructuring initiative. Additionally, as part of the evaluation of our manufacturing footprint in connection with Project Focus, we finalized a termination agreement to exit a contract with one of our third-party manufacturers during the second quarter of 2024, which resulted in an asset write-off charge of approximately $53.3 million. The decision to exit the agreement was driven in part by our ability to source these materials from lower cost locations. The charges incurred during the six months ended June 30, 2024 are included in the total estimated range for Project Focus. See Note 8 to our consolidated financial statements in our 2023 Form 10-K for details of the costs previously incurred for Project Focus. The remaining amounts will be reflected in our consolidated results of operations as they become probable and estimable or a triggering event is identified in accordance with the relevant accounting guidance. Roll forward of restructuring reserves The following table shows a roll forward of restructuring reserves, that will result in cash spending. These amounts exclude accelerated depreciation on fixed assets, asset impairment charges and asset retirement obligations.
