Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract] | |
NATURE OF OPERATIONS | NATURE OF OPERATIONS Dole plc is engaged in the worldwide sourcing, processing, distributing and marketing of high-quality fresh fruit and vegetables. Dole is a premier global leader in fresh produce, and the Company’s most significant products hold leading positions in their respective categories and territories. Dole is one of the largest producers of fresh bananas and pineapples, one of the largest global exporters of grapes and has a strong presence in growing categories such as berries, avocados and organic produce. Dole conducts operations throughout North America, Latin America, Europe, Asia, the Middle East and Africa (primarily in South Africa). As a result of its global operating and financing activities, Dole is exposed to certain risks, including fluctuations in commodity and fuel costs, interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates, as well as other environmental and business risks in sourcing and selling locations. Dole offers over 300 products that are grown and sourced, both locally and globally, from over 30 countries in various regions worldwide. These products are distributed and marketed in over 75 countries across retail, wholesale and food service channels. The Company operates through a number of business-to-business and business-to-consumer brands, the most notable being the Dole brand (“DOLE brand”). On January 30, 2023, certain of Dole’s wholly owned subsidiaries entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement (the “Agreement”) with Fresh Express Acquisition, LLC (“Fresh Express”), a wholly owned subsidiary of Chiquita Holdings Limited, pursuant to which Fresh Express has agreed to acquire Dole’s fresh vegetables division (“Fresh Vegetables division” or “Fresh Vegetables”) for approximately $293.0 million in cash, subject to certain adjustments set forth in the Agreement (the “Vegetables Transaction”). The Vegetables Transaction is subject to regulatory approval as well as the satisfaction or waiver of customary closing conditions. As a result of the decision to exit the business, the Fresh Vegetables division’s results are reported separately as discontinued operations, net of income taxes, in our condensed consolidated statements of operations for all periods presented and its assets and liabilities are separately presented in our condensed consolidated balance sheets as assets and liabilities held for sale. See Note 4 “Acquisitions and Divestitures” for further detail on the Vegetables Transaction and discontinued operations. |

Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |
BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES | BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES The financial statements herein are prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission for interim financial information. As such, the interim financial statements do not include all information and notes required for annual financial statements. In the opinion of management, the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Dole include all necessary adjustments, which are of a normal recurring nature, to state fairly Dole’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows. Dole’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of majority-owned subsidiaries over which Dole exercises control, entities that are not majority-owned but require consolidation, because Dole has the ability to exercise control over operating and financial policies or has the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the entities’ economic performance, and all variable interest entities (“VIEs”) for which Dole is the primary beneficiary. Intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated on consolidation. The results of consolidated entities are included from the effective date of control or, in the case of VIEs, from the date that Dole becomes the primary beneficiary. The results of subsidiaries sold or otherwise deconsolidated are excluded from consolidated results as of the date that Dole ceases to control the subsidiary or, in the case of VIEs, when Dole ceases to be the primary beneficiary. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts and disclosures reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Estimates and assumptions include, but are not limited to, the areas of customer and grower receivables, inventories, impairment of assets, useful lives of property, plant and equipment, intangible assets, income taxes, self-insurance reserves, pension and other postretirement benefits, business combinations, financial instruments and contingencies. Actual results could differ from these estimates and assumptions. During fiscal year 2022, the Company performed a quantitative assessment of goodwill and the DOLE brand indefinite-lived intangible asset in conjunction with the annual impairment assessment. As of the October 1, 2022 testing date, two of Dole’s reporting units with allocated goodwill and the DOLE brand were considered to be at risk of future impairment. The fair values of the Fresh Fruit and Diversified Fresh Produce – Americas and the Rest of the World (“Diversified Fresh Produce – Americas & ROW”) reporting units were approximately 2% and 5% above their carrying amounts, respectively, and the fair value of the Diversified Fresh Produce – Europe, the Middle East and Africa (“Diversified Fresh Produce – EMEA”) reporting unit was sufficiently above its carrying amount. The fair value of the DOLE brand exceeded its carrying amount by less than 1%. Although there have been no adverse changes since the testing date that indicate potential impairment, unfavorable changes to key assumptions in the impairment assessment, market conditions and macroeconomic circumstances could result in future impairment. Interim results are subject to seasonal variations and are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations for a full year. Dole’s operations are sensitive to a number of factors, including weather-related phenomena and its effects on industry volumes, prices, product quality and costs. Operations are also sensitive to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates, as well as economic conditions and security risks. The interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes to the consolidated financial statements in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 20-F. For further information on management estimates and Dole’s significant accounting policies, refer to the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Annual Report on Form 20-F. There have been no material changes from the significant accounting policies disclosed in the Annual Report on Form 20-F. |

NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS | NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS New Accounting Pronouncements Adopted ASU 2020-04, ASU 2021-01, and ASU 2022-06 – Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848) The FASB issued ASU 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848) – Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting , in March 2020 and subsequently issued ASU 2021-01 in January 2021 and ASU 2022-06 in December 2022. The amendments in these updates provide optional expedients and exceptions related to the accounting for contracts and hedging relationships that reference the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) or another reference rate expected to be discontinued due to reference rate reform if certain criteria are met. As of June 2023, Dole modified all of its borrowings and interest rate swaps that referenced LIBOR to now reference the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”). The Company has adopted certain elections under this guidance to account for the debt modifications as continuations of the existing agreements and maintain the hedge effectiveness of its interest rate swaps. The adoption of these elections did not impact Dole’s financial condition, results of operations, cash flows and related disclosures. New Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted The Company considered all new accounting pronouncements not yet adopted and concluded they are not expected to have a material impact. |

ACQUISITIONS AND DIVESTITURES | ACQUISITIONS AND DIVESTITURES Vegetables Transaction On January 30, 2023, Dole entered into the Agreement with Fresh Express, pursuant to which Fresh Express has agreed to acquire the Fresh Vegetables division for approximately $293.0 million in cash, subject to certain adjustments set forth in the Agreement. This transaction is subject to regulatory approval as well as the satisfaction or waiver of customary closing conditions. The Fresh Vegetables division comprises substantially all of the assets and all of the liabilities of the former Fresh Vegetables reportable segment. Certain assets of the Fresh Vegetables reportable segment that are excluded from the transaction are not material, individually or in the aggregate, and the majority of these assets have been moved to other assets held for sale in the condensed consolidated balance sheets, as an active program is underway to sell them to another third party. Refer to Note 11 “Assets Held for Sale and Actively Marketed Property” for further detail. The Company determined that exiting the Fresh Vegetables business represents a strategic shift that will have a material effect on the Company’s operations and results. If the Vegetables Transaction does not close due to regulatory reasons or otherwise, the Company is committed to exiting the business through an alternative process. As such, the results of the Fresh Vegetables division have been classified as discontinued operations in the condensed consolidated statements of operations for the periods presented, and its related assets and liabilities have been classified as held for sale in the condensed consolidated balance sheets as of March 31, 2023 and onwards. As a result, depreciation and amortization on long-lived assets have ceased as of March 31, 2023. Upon exiting the business, Dole does not anticipate having significant continuing involvement with the Fresh Vegetables division with the possible exception of limited transition service arrangements that, if they occur, are not expected to be material to Dole’s continuing operations. The following tables present the results of the Fresh Vegetables division as reported in loss from discontinued operations, net of income taxes, in the condensed consolidated statements of operations and the carrying value of assets and liabilities as presented within assets and liabilities held for sale in the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

The majority of acquisitions represent an increase of an existing ownership percentage to obtain control of entities previously accounted for under the equity method. Other acquisitions and divestitures in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and September 30, 2022 were not material. In the three months ended September 30, 2023, total goodwill acquired was $3.2 million and was assigned to the Diversified Fresh Produce – EMEA reportable segment. In the three months ended September 30, 2022, no goodwill was acquired.

Revenue from Contract with Customer [Abstract] | |
REVENUE | REVENUE Revenue consists primarily of product revenue, which includes the selling of fresh produce, health foods and consumer goods to third-party customers. Fresh produce comprises two main product categories, tropical fruit and diversified produce. Tropical fruit primarily consists of bananas and pineapples, and diversified produce primarily consists of all other fruit, vegetables and other produce. Product revenue also includes surcharges for additional product services such as freight, cooling, warehousing, fuel, containerization, handling and palletization related to the transfer of products. Revenue also includes service revenue, which includes management fees, third-party freight and royalties for the use of Company brands and trademarks. Additionally, the Company maintains a commercial cargo business where revenue is earned by providing handling and transportation services of containerized cargo on Company vessels. Net service revenues were less than 10% of total revenue for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and September 30, 2022. The following table presents the Company's disaggregated revenues by similar types of products and services for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and September 30, 2022: Three Months Ended Nine Months Ended September 30, 2023 September 30, 2022 September 30, 2023 September 30, 2022 (U.S. Dollars in thousands) Diversified produce $ 1,308,319 $ 1,249,080 $ 3,824,430 $ 3,738,135 Tropical fruit 638,040 607,832 2,055,621 1,962,480 Health foods and consumer goods 36,546 30,532 101,785 90,690 Commercial cargo 43,193 49,774 136,849 144,946 Other 16,574 23,476 54,328 45,583 Total revenues, net $ 2,042,672 $ 1,960,695 $ 6,173,013 $ 5,981,835 The following table presents the Company's disaggregated revenues by channel for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and September 30, 2022: Three Months Ended Nine Months Ended September 30, 2023 September 30, 2022 September 30, 2023 September 30, 2022 Third party revenue: (U.S. Dollars in thousands) Retail $ 1,168,778 $ 1,163,576 $ 3,625,945 $ 3,524,096 Wholesale 656,524 592,649 1,911,919 1,881,301 Food service 138,496 124,806 378,700 340,972 Commercial cargo 43,193 49,774 136,849 144,946 Other 10,466 3,298 40,377 8,463 Revenue from sales to equity method investees 25,215 26,592 79,223 82,057 Total revenue, net $ 2,042,672 $ 1,960,695 $ 6,173,013 $ 5,981,835 |

Segment Reporting [Abstract] | |
SEGMENTS | SEGMENTS Accounting for the anticipated exit from the Fresh Vegetables division, Dole has the following three reportable segments, which align with the manner in which the business is managed: Fresh Fruit, Diversified Fresh Produce – EMEA and Diversified Fresh Produce – Americas & ROW. The Company’s reportable segments are based on (i) financial information reviewed by the Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”), defined as the Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and Chief Operating Officer (“COO”), (ii) internal management and related reporting structures and (iii) the basis upon which the CODM assesses performance and allocates resources. Fresh Fruit: The Fresh Fruit reportable segment primarily sells bananas and pineapples which are sourced from local growers or Dole-owned and leased farms, predominately located in Latin America, and sold throughout North America, Europe, Latin America and Asia. This segment also operates a commercial cargo business, which offers available capacity to transport third party cargo on company-owned vessels that are primarily used internally for transporting bananas and pineapples between Latin America, North America and Europe. Diversified Fresh Produce – EMEA: The Diversified Fresh Produce – EMEA reportable segment includes Dole’s Irish, Dutch, Spanish, Portuguese, French, Italian, United Kingdom (“U.K.”), Swedish, Danish, South African, Czech, Slovakian, Polish and Brazilian businesses, the majority of which sell a variety of imported and local fresh fruits and vegetables through retail, wholesale and, in some instances, food service channels across the European marketplace. Diversified Fresh Produce – Americas & ROW: The Diversified Fresh Produce – Americas & ROW reportable segment includes Dole’s United States (“U.S.”), Canadian, Chilean, Peruvian, Argentinian and Indian businesses, all of which market globally and locally sourced fresh produce from third-party growers or Dole-owned farms through retail, wholesale and food service channels globally. Segment performance is evaluated based on a variety of factors, of which revenue and adjusted earnings before interest expense, income taxes and depreciation and amortization (“Adjusted EBITDA”) are the primary financial measures. Management does not use assets by segment to evaluate performance or allocate resources. Therefore, assets by segment are not disclosed. All transactions between reportable segments are eliminated in consolidation. Segment results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and September 30, 2022 have been updated to remove the discontinued operations of the Fresh Vegetables division, and corporate costs previously allocated to the Fresh Vegetables reportable segment have been reallocated to the remaining reportable segments. Adjusted EBITDA is reconciled below to net income by (1) subtracting the loss from discontinued operations, net of income taxes; (2) subtracting the income tax expense or adding the income tax benefit; (3) subtracting interest expense; (4) subtracting depreciation charges; (5) subtracting amortization charges on intangible assets; (6) subtracting mark to market losses or adding mark to market gains related to unrealized impacts from derivative instruments and foreign currency denominated borrowings, realized impacts on noncash settled foreign currency denominated borrowings, net foreign currency impacts on liquidated entities and fair value movements on contingent consideration; (7) other items which are separately stated based on materiality, which, during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and September 30, 2022, included adding or subtracting asset write-downs from extraordinary events, net of insurance proceeds, adding the gain or subtracting the loss on the disposal of business interests, subtracting the incremental costs from the fair value uplift for biological assets related to the acquisition of Legacy Dole, adding the gain or subtracting the loss on the sale of investments accounted for under the equity method, adding the gain or subtracting the loss on asset sales for assets held for sale and actively marketed property, subtracting restructuring charges and costs for legal matters not in the ordinary course of business, and subtracting costs incurred for the cyber-related incident; and (8) the Company’s share of these items from equity method investments.

RECEIVABLES AND ALLOWANCES FOR CREDIT LOSSES | 9 Months Ended |
Sep. 30, 2023 | |
Receivables [Abstract] | |
RECEIVABLES AND ALLOWANCES FOR CREDIT LOSSES | RECEIVABLES AND ALLOWANCES FOR CREDIT LOSSES Trade Receivables Trade receivables as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 were $575.2 million and $610.4 million, net of allowances for credit losses of $22.5 million and $18.0 million, respectively. Trade receivables are also recorded net of allowances for sales deductions under the scope of Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. As a result of Dole’s robust credit monitoring practices, the industry in which it operates and the nature of its customer base, the credit losses associated with trade receivables have historically not been significant in comparison to net revenue and gross trade receivables. The allowance for credit losses on trade receivables is measured on a collective pool basis, when the Company believes similar risk characteristics exist among customers. Trade receivables that do not share similar risk characteristics are evaluated on a case-by-case basis. Dole estimates expected credit losses based on ongoing monitoring of customer credit, macroeconomic indicators and historical credit losses based on customer type and geographic region. A rollforward of the allowance for credit losses for trade receivables was as follows: Amount (U.S. Dollars in thousands) Balance as of December 31, 2022 $ (18,001) Additional provisions in the period (7,053) Recoveries of amounts previously reserved 3,355 Balance sheet write-offs 1,004 Balance sheet reclassifications (2,061) Foreign exchange impact 258 Balance as of September 30, 2023 $ (22,498) Dole utilizes third-party trade receivables sales arrangements to help manage its liquidity. Certain arrangements contain recourse provisions in which Dole’s maximum financial loss is limited to a percentage of receivables sold under the arrangements. Dole derecognizes all sold receivables from the condensed consolidated balance sheets, as it accounts for the transfers as sales under ASC 860, Transfers and Servicing . As of September 30, 2023, the Company had derecognized trade receivables under non-recourse facilities and facilities with recourse provisions of $11.4 million and $249.3 million 1 , respectively. As of December 31, 2022, the Company had derecognized trade receivables under non-recourse facilities and facilities with recourse provisions of $11.9 million and $237.2 million, respectively. The fees associated with the sale of such receivables are recorded in interest expense in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. The Company continues to service sold receivables, and the fair value of any resulting servicing liability is immaterial. Grower Advances Dole makes cash advances and materials advances to third-party growers for various production needs, including labor, fertilization, irrigation, pruning and harvesting costs, and additionally incurs other supply chain costs on behalf of third-party growers that are recorded as grower advance receivables. Some of these advances are secured by collateral owned by the growers. Grower advances are categorized as either working capital advances or term advances. Working capital advances are made to the growers during a normal seasonal growing cycle to support operational working capital needs. These advances are short-term in nature and are intended to be repaid with excess cash proceeds from the current crop harvest. Short-term grower loans and advances, whether secured or unsecured, are classified as grower advance receivables, net, in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. Term advances are made to support longer-term grower investments. These advances are long-term in nature, are typically secured by long-term grower assets and usually involve a long-term supply agreement for the marketing of fruit. These advances typically have structured repayment terms which are payable over the term of the advance or supply agreement with excess cash proceeds from the crop harvest, after payment of any outstanding working capital advances. The term of supply agreements and term advances is generally one Both working capital advances and term advances may bear interest. Accrued interest on these arrangements has not historically been significant to the financial statements. The following table summarizes growers advances as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 based on whether the advances are secured or unsecured: September 30, 2023 December 31, 2022 Short-Term Long-Term Short-Term Long-Term (U.S. Dollars in thousands) Secured gross advances to growers and suppliers $ 86,768 $ 14,704 $ 66,485 $ 8,317 Allowance for secured advances to growers and suppliers (13,626) (599) (12,534) — Unsecured gross advances to growers and suppliers 59,159 7,313 56,196 5,316 Allowance for unsecured advances to growers and suppliers (7,320) (3,256) (3,283) (3,147) Net advances to growers and suppliers $ 124,981 $ 18,162 $ 106,864 $ 10,486 Of the $143.1 million and $117.4 million of net advances to growers and suppliers as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, $14.0 million and $12.9 million, respectively, was considered past due. Dole monitors the collectability of grower advances through periodic review of financial information received from growers. The allowance for credit losses for grower advances is monitored by management on a case-by-case basis, considering historical credit loss information for the grower, the timing of the growing season and expected yields, the fair value of the collateral, macroeconomic indicators, weather conditions and other miscellaneous contributing factors. Dole generally considers an advance to a grower to be past due when the advance is not fully recovered by the excess cash proceeds on the current year crop harvest or when the advance is not repaid by the excess cash proceeds by the end of the supply term agreement. A rollforward of the allowance for expected credit losses related to grower loans and advances was as follows: Amount (U.S. Dollars in thousands) Balance as of December 31, 2022 $ (18,964) Additional provisions in the period (5,712) Recoveries of amounts previously reserved 704 Balance sheet write-offs 173 Balance sheet reclassifications (1,055) Foreign exchange impact 53 Balance as of September 30, 2023 $ (24,801) Other Receivables Other receivables, net, are recognized at net realizable value, which reflects the net amount expected to be collected. Current and non-current balances of other receivables are included in other receivables, net, and other assets, respectively, in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. Other receivables primarily comprise value-added taxes (“VAT”) receivables, other receivables from government and tax authorities and non-trade receivables from customers, suppliers and other third parties. Based on the nature of these agreements, the timing of collection is dependent on many factors, including government legislation and the timing of settlement of the contract or arrangement. |

Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract] | |
INCOME TAXES | INCOME TAXES Dole recorded an income tax expense of $13.0 million on $63.3 million of income from continuing operations before income taxes and equity earnings for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and $40.6 million on $183.5 million of income from continuing operations before income taxes and equity earnings for the nine months ended September 30, 2023. Dole recorded income tax benefit of $34.2 million on $23.8 million of income from continuing operations before income taxes and equity earnings for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and $21.5 million on $121.0 million on income from continuing operations before income taxes and equity earnings for the nine months ended September 30, 2022. Dole’s effective tax rate varies significantly from period to period due to the level, mix and seasonality of earnings generated in Ireland and its various foreign jurisdictions, including the U.S. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, the Company’s income tax expense differed from the Irish statutory rate of 12.5% primarily due to U.S. Global Intangible Low-Taxed Income (“GILTI”) provisions of the 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (“Tax Act”), U.S. Subpart F income inclusion and operations in foreign jurisdictions that are taxed at different rates than the Irish statutory tax rate. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, the Company’s income tax expense differed from the Irish statutory rate of 12.5% primarily due to GILTI provisions of the Tax Act, U.S. Subpart F income inclusion, a decrease in liabilities for uncertain tax positions related to the taxation of foreign income as a result of the lapse of the statute of limitations and operations in foreign jurisdictions that are taxed at different rates than the Irish statutory tax rate. Dole is required to adjust its effective tax rate for each quarter to be consistent with the estimated annual effective tax rate. Jurisdictions with a projected loss where no tax benefit can be recognized are excluded from the calculation of the estimated annual effective tax rate. This could result in a higher or lower effective tax rate during a particular quarter based upon the mix and timing of actual earnings compared to annual projections. The Company’s net deferred tax liability is primarily related to acquired intangible assets and fair value adjustments resulting from the Merger and is net of deferred tax assets related to the U.S. federal interest disallowance carryforward, U.S. state and non-U.S. net operating loss carryforwards and other temporary differences. Dole maintains a valuation allowance against certain U.S state and non-U.S. deferred tax assets. Each reporting period, the Company evaluates the need for a valuation allowance on deferred tax assets by jurisdiction and adjusts estimates as more information becomes available. The Company is required to recognize the financial statement effects of a tax position when it is more likely than not, based on the technical merits, that the position will be sustained upon examination. As a result, Dole has recorded a reserve against tax benefits that do not meet the more likely than not threshold to sustain the tax position. During the year ended December 31, 2022, the taxing authorities in one of Dole’s foreign jurisdictions issued an income tax assessment related to transfer pricing of approximately $30.0 million (including interest and penalties) for the 2017 tax year. The Company’s subsidiary appealed the assessment, and on March 9, 2023, the reviewing body annulled the assessment. The tax authority has begun a new audit, which the Company’s subsidiary has challenged based on the expiration of the statute of limitations. Based on the new audit, an assessment was issued in October 2023 of approximately $20.0 million (including interest and penalties) for the 2017 tax year. The Company continues to protest the reopening of the audit for 2017 on the grounds that the statute of limitations has expired and the Company has also appealed the most recent assessment with the taxing authorities. The Company believes that based on an analysis of the facts and circumstances, applicable local law, tax regulations and case law, it is more likely than not that we will prevail. While the Company believes the likelihood of paying the assessment is remote, the timing of resolution remains uncertain. |

ASSETS HELD FOR SALE AND ACTIVELY MARKETED PROPERTY | ASSETS HELD FOR SALE AND ACTIVELY MARKETED PROPERTY Dole continuously reviews its assets in order to identify those that do not meet Dole’s future strategic direction or internal economic return criteria. As a result of this review, Dole has identified and is in the process of selling certain assets which are classified as either held for sale or actively marketed property. The assets that have been identified are available for sale in their present condition and an active program is underway to sell the properties. Dole is actively marketing these properties at a price that is in excess of book value. For property classified as held for sale, their sale is anticipated to occur during the ensuing year, while the timing of the sale of property classified as actively marketed is uncertain.

In June 2023, the Company amended the Credit Agreement to replace the U.S. Dollar LIBOR benchmark rate with SOFR plus a spread. U.S. Dollar borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility refers to SOFR as the benchmark rate plus an additional spread adjustment of 0.10%. U.S. Dollar borrowings under the Term Loan A refers to SOFR as the benchmark rate plus an additional spread adjustment of 0.10%. For Term Loan B borrowings, the Company elected to adopt the LIBOR fallback provisions and replaced LIBOR with SOFR as the benchmark rate plus a spread adjustment that varies from 0.11% to 0.72%, depending on the tenor of the borrowing. Interest under the Revolving Credit Facility and Term Loan A is payable, at the option of Dole, either at (i) SOFR plus 0.10%, or the respective benchmark rate depending on the currency of the loan, plus 1.00% to 2.75%, with a benchmark floor of 0.00% or (ii) a base rate plus 0.00% to 1.75%, in each case, to be determined based on credit ratings and the Company’s total net leverage ratio. Interest under Term Loan B is payable, at the option of Dole, either at (i) SOFR plus the applicable credit spread adjustment, or the respective benchmark rate depending on the currency of the loan, plus 2.00% to 2.25%, with a benchmark floor of 0.00% or (ii) a base rate plus 1.00% to 1.25%, in each case, to be determined based on credit ratings. As discussed in Note 14 “Derivative Financial Instruments”, the Company enters into interest rate swap arrangements to fix a portion of the Credit Agreement’s variable rate debt to fixed rate debt. Principal payments of $1.9 million under Term Loan A are due quarterly until maturity, with the remaining balance due on the maturity date of August 3, 2026. Principal payments of $1.4 million under Term Loan B are due quarterly until maturity, with the remaining balance due on the maturity date of August 3, 2028. Under the terms of the Credit Agreement, if the closing of the Vegetables Transaction occurs, the Company will be required to use a portion of the proceeds to make a prepayment on Term Loan A and Term Loan B. The estimated minimum prepayment has been reclassified from long-term debt, net, to current maturities in the condensed consolidated balance sheets as of September 30, 2023. The Revolving Credit Facility has an expiration date of August 3, 2026. As of September 30, 2023, amounts outstanding under Term Loan A and Term Loan B were $814.2 million, in the aggregate, and borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility were $93.3 million.

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Disclosure [Abstract] | |
DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS | DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS Dole is exposed to foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations, bunker fuel price fluctuations and interest rate changes in the normal course of its business. As part of its risk management strategy, Dole uses derivative instruments to hedge some of these exposures. Dole’s objective is to offset gains and losses resulting from these exposures with losses and gains from the derivative contracts used to hedge them, thereby reducing the volatility of earnings. Dole does not hold or issue derivative financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes. The types of derivative instruments utilized by Dole are described below: Foreign currency hedges: Dole enters into foreign currency exchange forward and option contracts to hedge exposure to cha nges in certain foreign currency exchange rates. Dole enters into fair value hedges to hedge foreign currency exposure of non-functional currency assets and liabilities and cash flow hedges to hedge foreign currency exposure of forecasted revenue, cost of sales and operating expenses. Interest rate swaps: Dole enters into interest rate swaps to mitigate a significant portion of the interest rate risk associated with its variable-rate debt. In June 2023, Dole amended $700.0 million notional value of its interest rate swaps to change the benchmark interest rate from U.S. Dollar LIBOR to SOFR. In addition, the floor for each of the swaps that have been designated to hedge Term Loan A borrowings was changed to (0.10%), and the floor for each of the swaps that have been designated to hedge Term Loan B borrowings was changed to (0.11%). The fixed rate of each swap was adjusted to account for the market value difference between the LIBOR and SOFR reference rates. The interest rate swaps pay a fixed rate of interest at rates between 0.42% and 2.50%, with the receiving rates variable based on SOFR, which were between 5.31% and 5.32% as of September 30, 2023. All interest rate swap arrangements are classified within the condensed consolidated balance sheets based on ultimate maturity date of the arrangement. Bunker fuel contracts: Dole incurs significant fuel costs from shipping products from sourcing locations to end customer markets. As a result, Dole is exposed to commodity and fuel cost risks and enters into bunker fuel contracts to hedge the risk of unfavorable fuel prices. Hedge Accounting Election The Company performs an analysis of the hedging portfolio at inception and on a quarterly basis. The Company uses the following criteria in evaluating derivative instruments for hedge accounting: 1. Hedged risk is eligible 2. Hedged item or transaction is eligible 3. Hedging instrument is eligible 4. Hedging relationship is highly effective 5. Designation and documentation requirements are met Dole designates the interest rate swaps and certain foreign currency cash flow hedges for hedge accounting and records the changes in the fair value of these instruments in accumulated other comprehensive loss. The changes in the fair value of foreign currency fair value hedges, non-designated cash flow hedges and bunker fuel hedges are recorded in earnings. Notional Amounts of Derivative Instruments Dole had the following derivative instruments outstanding as of September 30, 2023: Aggregate Notional Amount Foreign currency forward contracts by currency: United States Dollar $35.3 million Euro €175.8 million Sterling £19.4 million Swedish Krona SEK 22.0 million Interest rate swap contracts $700.0 million Bunker fuel hedges 6.4 thousand metric tons Quantitative Disclosures Derivatives are presented gross in the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

The assets and liabilities that are required to be recorded at fair value on a recurring basis are derivative instruments, contingent consideration and Rabbi Trust investments. The fair values of the Company’s derivative instruments are determined using Level 2 inputs, which are defined as “observable prices that are based on inputs not quoted on active markets but corroborated by market data.” The fair values of the foreign currency forward contracts, the interest rate swaps and bunker fuel hedges were estimated using internal discounted cash flow calculations based upon forward foreign currency exchange rates, bunker fuel futures, interest rate yield curves or quotes obtained from brokers for contracts with similar terms, less any credit valuation adjustments based on Dole’s own credit risk and any counterparties' credit risk. Dole sponsors a non-qualified deferred compensation plan and a frozen non-qualified supplemental defined benefit plan for executives. The plans are funded through investments in Rabbi Trusts. Securities are recorded at fair value with realized and unrealized holding gains or losses included in earnings. As of September 30, 2023, securities totaled $21.2 million, of which $5.7 million was classified as short-term and included in short-term investments in the condensed consolidated balance sheets, and $15.5 million was classified as long-term and included in long-term investments in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. As of December 31, 2022, securities totaled $21.9 million, of which $5.4 million was classified as short-term and $16.5 million was classified as long-term. Dole estimates the fair value of its Rabbi Trust investments using prices provided by its custodian, which are based on various third-party pricing services or valuation models developed by the underlying fund managers. The Rabbi Trust investments are held by the custodian in various Master Trust Units (“MTUs”), where the fair value is derived from the individual investment components. Each investment within the MTU is individually valued, after considering gains, losses, contributions and distributions, and the collective value of the MTU represents the total fair value. Dole has evaluated the methodologies used by the custodian to develop the estimate of fair value and assessed whether such valuations are representative of fair value, including net asset value. Dole has determined the valuations to be Level 3 inputs, because they are based upon significant unobservable inputs. The table below sets forth a summary of changes in the fair value of the Level 3 contingent consideration for the nine months ended September 30, 2023: Fair Value Measurements Using Significant (U.S. Dollars in thousands) Balance as of December 31, 2022 $ (6,813) Additions (2,708) Payments 1,169 Remeasurement gain 61 Foreign exchange impact 86 Balance as of September 30, 2023 $ (8,205) The carrying value of contingent consideration in the condensed consolidated balance sheets approximates fair value based on the present value of the expected payments, discounted using a risk-adjusted rate. The expected payments are determined by forecasting the acquiree's earnings over the applicable period. Dole has determined the valuations are Level 3 inputs, because they are based upon significant unobservable inputs. Fair Value of Financial Instruments In estimating the Company’s fair value disclosures for financial instruments, Dole used the following methods and assumptions: Cash and cash equivalents: These items have carrying values reported in the condensed consolidated balance sheets that approximate fair value due to their liquid nature, and they are classified as Level 1. Short-term trade and grower receivables: These items have carrying values reported in the condensed consolidated balance sheets that are net of allowances, and they are classified as Level 2. Trade payables: These items have carrying values reported in the condensed consolidated balance sheets that approximate fair value, and they are classified as Level 2. Notes receivable and notes payable : These items have carrying values reported in the condensed consolidated balance sheets that approximate fair value, and they are classified as Level 2. Long-term grower receivables : These items have carrying values reported in the condensed consolidated balance sheets that are net of allowances, and they are classified as Level 2. Finance and operating leases: The carrying value of finance lease obligations reported in the condensed consolidated balance sheets approximates fair value based on current interest rates, which contain an element of default risk. The fair value of finance lease obligations is estimated using Level 2 inputs based on quoted prices for those or similar instruments. For operating leases, Dole uses the rate implicit in the lease to discount leases payments to present value, when available. However, most leases do not provide a readily determinable implicit rate. Therefore, the Company’s incremental borrowing rate is used to discount the lease payments based on information available at lease commencement. Interest-bearing loans and borrowings: For floating rate interest-bearing loans and borrowings with a contractual repricing date of less than one year, the nominal amount is deemed to reflect fair value. For loans with repricing dates of greater than one year, fair value is calculated based on the present value of the expected future principal and interest cash flows, discounted at interest rates effective at the reporting date and adjusted for movements in credit spreads. Based on these inputs, these instruments are classified as Level 2. Fair Value of Debt Dole estimates the fair value of its Term Loan A and Term Loan B based on the bid side of current quoted market prices. The carrying value, net of debt issuance costs, and gross estimated fair value of these term loans based on Level 2 inputs in the fair value hierarchy are summarized below: September 30, 2023 December 31, 2022 (U.S. Dollars in thousands) Carrying value, net of unamortized debt issuance costs $ 799,220 $ 806,326 Unamortized debt issuance costs 14,980 17,549 Gross carrying value $ 814,200 $ 823,875 Estimated fair value $ 810,129 $ 795,039 See Note 12 “Debt” for additional detail on long-term debt instruments.

Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract] | |
CONTINGENCIES | CONTINGENCIES Guarantees Dole provides guarantees for obligations of subsidiaries to third parties directly and indirectly through letters of credit from its revolving credit facilities, other major banking institutions and surety bonds issued by insurance companies. These letters of credit, bank guarantees and surety bonds are required by certain regulatory authorities, suppliers and other operating agreements and generally have contract terms of one Additionally, the Company guarantees certain bank borrowings and other obligations of certain equity method investees. As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, total guarantees under these arrangements were $6.3 million and $9.2 million, respectively, which represents the maximum potential future payments that Dole could be required to make. Hawaii Spillway In February of 2020, the State of Hawaii and Department of Land and Natural Resources provided notice to Dole of a deficiency in the spillway and embankment stability of a Company-owned reservoir that requires remediation by 2025. Dole contracted a third party to perform an improvement study which resulted in an estimate of costs to modify the spillway of approximately $20.0 million. On July 5, 2023, Hawaii Senate Bill 833 was signed into law by the Governor of Hawaii, pursuant to which the Office of the Governor will negotiate the acquisition of Dole’s interests in the reservoir and associated irrigation system. The bill also appropriates funds for the State to repair and maintain the irrigation system and the associated spillway. The Company does not deem a resulting loss from the contingency associated with the costs to modify the spillway to be probable and, thus, has not recognized a liability in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. Legal Contingencies Dole is involved from time to time in claims and legal actions incidental to its operations, both as plaintiff and defendant. Legal fees are expensed as incurred or expected to be incurred when the resulting loss from legal matters related to underlying events that have already occurred is probable and estimable. Dole has established what management currently believes to be adequate accruals for pending legal matters. These accruals are established as part of an ongoing worldwide assessment of claims and legal actions that takes into consideration such items as changes in the pending case load (including resolved and new matters), opinions of legal counsel, individual developments in court proceedings, changes in the law, changes in business focus, changes in the litigation environment, changes in opponent strategy and tactics, new developments as a result of ongoing discovery and past experience in defending and settling similar claims. In the opinion of management, after consultation with legal counsel, the claims or actions to which Dole is a party are not expected to have a material adverse effect, individually or in the aggregate, on Dole’s results of operations, financial condition or cash flows. DBCP Cases: Dole Food Company, Inc. and certain of its subsidiaries are involved in lawsuits pending in the U.S. and in foreign countries alleging injury because of exposure to the agricultural chemical DBCP (1,2- dibromo-3-chloropropane). Currently, there are approximately 180 lawsuits in various stages of proceedings alleging injury or seeking enforcement of Nicaraguan judgments, most of which are pending in Nicaragua and are inactive. In addition, there are multiple labor cases pending in Costa Rica under that country’s national insurance program. Settlements have been reached that, when fully implemented, will significantly reduce DBCP litigation in Nicaragua and the Philippines. Currently, claimed damages in DBCP cases worldwide total approximately $17.8 billion, with lawsuits in Nicaragua representing almost all of this amount. 24 of the cases in Nicaragua have resulted in judgments, although many of these are being eliminated as part of the current settlements. The Company believes that none of the Nicaraguan judgments that remain will be enforceable against any Dole entity in the U.S. or in any other country. As to all the DBCP matters, Dole has denied liability and asserted substantial defenses. The Company believes there is no reliable scientific basis for alleged injuries from the agricultural field application of DBCP. Although no assurance can be given concerning the outcome of the DBCP cases, in the opinion of management, after consultation with legal counsel and based on experience defending and resolving DBCP claims, neither the pending lawsuits and claims nor their resolution are expected to have a material adverse effect on Dole’s financial position or results of operations, because the probable loss is not material. Former Shell Site: Beginning in 2009, Shell Oil Company and Dole Food Company, Inc. were sued in several cases filed in Los Angeles Superior Court by the City of Carson and persons claiming to be current or former residents in the area of a housing development built in the 1960’s by a predecessor of what is now a Dole subsidiary, Barclay Hollander Corporation (“BHC”), on land that had been owned and used by Shell as a crude oil storage facility for 40 years prior to the housing development. The homeowner and City of Carson complaints have been settled and the litigation has been dismissed. On May 6, 2013, Shell filed a complaint against Dole Food Company, Inc. (which was later voluntarily dismissed), BHC and Lomita Development Company (“Lomita”), seeking indemnity for the costs associated with the lawsuits discussed above (approximately $90.0 million plus attorney fees) and for the cleanup discussed below (approximately $310.0 million). Shell’s indemnification claims were based on an early entry side agreement between Shell and an entity related to BHC and on claims based in equity. The trial court dismissed Shell’s contract-based claims and eliminated Shell’s demands for indemnification related to the homeowner and City of Carson cases. Shell’s equitable claims related to the cleanup costs were tried and, on November 9, 2022, the jury delivered a verdict deciding that Shell properly incurred and will incur a total of $266.6 million in cleanup costs, and that BHC should bear 50.0% of those costs, or $133.3 million. BHC has filed an appeal. In June 2023, the trial court granted Shell’s motion to add Dole Food Company, Inc. to the BHC judgment as an alter ego of BHC and ordered Shell to reimburse BHC approximately $26.7 million in attorney’s fees, which serves as an offset to the BHC judgment amount. Dole Food Company, Inc., has appealed the alter ego ruling and secured a bond sufficient to stay enforcement of the judgement. Shell has appealed the award of the attorney’s fees. The California Regional Water Quality Control Board (“Water Board”) is supervising the cleanup on the former Shell site. On March 11, 2011, the Water Board issued a Cleanup and Abatement Order (“CAO”) naming Shell as the Discharger and a Responsible Party and ordering Shell to assess, monitor and cleanup and abate the effects of contaminants discharged to soil and groundwater at the site. On April 30, 2015, the CAO was amended to also name BHC as a discharger. BHC appealed this CAO revision to the California State Water Resources Control Board, which appeal was denied by operation of law when the Water Board took no action. On September 30, 2015, BHC filed a writ petition in the Superior Court challenging the CAO on several grounds. The trial court denied BHC’s petition, which denial was subsequently upheld by the California Court of Appeals, thereby ending BHC’s challenge to the CAO revision naming BHC as a discharger. In the opinion of management, after consultation with legal counsel, the claims or actions related to the CAO are not expected to have a material adverse effect, individually or in the aggregate, on Dole’s results of operations, financial condition or cash flows, because management believes the risk of loss is remote. |

Equity [Abstract] | |
STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY | STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY Common Stock As of September 30, 2023, the Company was authorized to issue 600.0 million total shares of capital stock, consisting of 300.0 million shares of common stock and 300.0 million shares of preferred stock. As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, there were 94.9 million shares of common stock outstanding and no shares of preferred stock outstanding. Stock-Based Compensation The Company’s primary stock-based compensation plan is the 2021 Omnibus Incentive Compensation Plan (“the Plan”), under which to date, share options and two different types of restricted stock units (“RSUs”) have been issued. The purpose of the Plan is to benefit and advance the interests of Dole by attracting, retaining and motivating participants and to compensate participants for contributions to the success of the Company. Upon exercise of share options or vesting of RSUs, new shares are issued from existing authorization. A total of 7.4 million shares of the Company’s common stock were initially reserved for issuance pursuant to the Omnibus Plan. Upon the exercise of any option or vesting of any RSU, the related award is cancelled to the extent of the number of shares exercised or vested, and that number of shares is no longer available under the Plan. If any part of the award terminates without delivery of the related shares, the extent of the award will then be available for future grant under the Plan. As of September 30, 2023, there were 5.7 million shares available for future grant under the Plan and 1.6 million shares available for future issue under awards granted. In the nine months ended September 30, 2023, additional RSU awards were issued under the Plan that vest over a one Dividends Declared The following table summarizes dividends per share declared for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and September 30, 2022: Date Declared Amount (U.S. Dollars) 8/17/2023 $ 0.08 5/17/2023 $ 0.08 3/6/2023 $ 0.08 8/22/2022 $ 0.08 5/24/2022 $ 0.08 3/14/2022 $ 0.08 The following table summarizes total dividends declared for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and September 30, 2022: Three Months Ended Nine Months Ended September 30, 2023 September 30, 2022 September 30, 2023 September 30, 2022 (U.S. Dollars in thousands) Dividends $ (7,686) $ (7,695) $ (23,063) $ (22,925) In January and April of 2023, Dole paid cash dividends of $0.08 per share, totaling $15.4 million, to shareholders for the third quarter dividend declared on November 16, 2022 and for the fourth quarter dividend declared on March 6, 2023. In July of 2023, Dole paid cash dividends of $0.08 per share, totaling $7.8 million to shareholders for the first quarter dividend declared on May 17, 2023. Dole’s ability to declare and pay dividends is subject to limitations contained in its various debt agreements. As of September 30, 2023, Dole had the ability to make dividend payments of $330.9 million before these limitations would come into effect. See Note 20 “Subsequent Events” for additional detail on dividends declared and paid.

Equity Method Investments and Joint Ventures [Abstract] | |
INVESTMENTS IN UNCONSOLIDATED AFFILIATES | INVESTMENTS IN UNCONSOLIDATED AFFILIATES As of September 30, 2023, Dole’s investments in unconsolidated affiliates were $127.5 million, of which $124.1 million represented equity method investments, and $3.4 million represented investments in which Dole does not have significant influence. As of December 31, 2022, Dole’s investments in unconsolidated affiliates were $124.2 million, of which $120.9 million represented equity method investments, and $3.3 million represented investments in which Dole does not have significant influence. Dole’s consolidated net income includes its proportionate share of the net income or loss of equity method investments in affiliates. When Dole records its proportionate share of net income, it increases equity method earnings in the condensed consolidated statements of operations and the carrying value in that investment in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. Conversely, when Dole records its proportionate share of a net loss, it decreases equity method earnings in the condensed consolidated statements of operations and the carrying value in that investment in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. Cash dividends received from investments in which Dole does not have significant influence are recorded in other income, net, and have historically not been significant. Transactions with Unconsolidated Affiliates In the ordinary course of business, Dole enters into arm’s length transactions with unconsolidated affiliates, which include trading sales and purchases of goods and other supplies. From time to time, Dole also provides both seasonal and long-term loans to these affiliates, though these amounts have historically not been significant. The following table presents sales to and purchases from investments in unconsolidated affiliates for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and September 30, 2022: Three Months Ended Nine Months Ended September 30, 2023 September 30, 2022 September 30, 2023 September 30, 2022 (U.S. Dollars in thousands) Sales $ 25,215 $ 24,598 $ 79,223 $ 80,063 Purchases 41,595 40,597 116,820 119,650 The following tables presents amounts due from and to investments in unconsolidated affiliates as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022: September 30, 2023 December 31, 2022 (U.S. Dollars in thousands) Amounts due from investments in unconsolidated affiliates presented within trade receivables $ 11,741 $ 27,503 Amounts due from investments in unconsolidated affiliates presented within other receivables 7,857 3,224 Amounts due from investments in unconsolidated affiliates presented within other assets 8,225 8,396 Amounts due to investments in unconsolidated affiliates presented within accounts payable (10,477) (8,959) |

Earnings Per Share [Abstract] | |
EARNINGS (LOSS) PER SHARE | EARNINGS (LOSS) PER SHARE Basic earnings (loss) per share Basic earnings (loss) per share is calculated by dividing the net income (loss) for the period attributable to shareholders of the Company by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is calculated by dividing the net income (loss) for the period attributable to shareholders of the Company by the weighted average number of shares outstanding after adjusting for the impact of all share options and RSUs with a dilutive effect. The Company uses the treasury stock method to calculate the dilutive effect of outstanding equity awards for diluted earnings (loss) per share. The following table presents basic and diluted earnings (loss) per share for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and September 30, 2022: Three Months Ended Nine Months Ended September 30, 2023 September 30, 2022 September 30, 2023 September 30, 2022 (U.S. Dollars and shares in thousands, except per share amounts) Income from continuing operations $ 55,657 $ 58,284 $ 154,391 $ 146,523 Less: Net income attributable to noncontrolling interests (8,693) (6,743) (25,049) (18,679) Income from continuing operations attributable to Dole plc 46,964 51,541 129,342 127,844 Loss from discontinued operations, net of income taxes (1,672) (11,704) (27,616) (48,129) Net income attributable to Dole plc $ 45,292 $ 39,837 $ 101,726 $ 79,715 Weighted average number of shares outstanding: Weighted average number of shares – basic 94,929 94,891 94,912 94,882 Effect of share awards with a dilutive effect 219 17 182 28 Weighted average number of shares – diluted 95,148 94,908 95,094 94,910 Income (loss) per share: Basic: Continuing operations $ 0.50 $ 0.54 $ 1.36 $ 1.35 Discontinued operations (0.02) (0.12) (0.29) (0.51) Net income per share attributable to Dole plc $ 0.48 $ 0.42 $ 1.07 $ 0.84 Diluted: Continuing operations $ 0.50 $ 0.54 $ 1.36 $ 1.35 Discontinued operations (0.02) (0.12) (0.29) (0.51) Net income per share attributable to Dole plc $ 0.48 $ 0.42 $ 1.07 $ 0.84 |

New Accounting Pronouncements Adopted and New Accounting Not Yet Pronouncements Adopted | New Accounting Pronouncements Adopted ASU 2020-04, ASU 2021-01, and ASU 2022-06 – Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848) The FASB issued ASU 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848) – Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting , in March 2020 and subsequently issued ASU 2021-01 in January 2021 and ASU 2022-06 in December 2022. The amendments in these updates provide optional expedients and exceptions related to the accounting for contracts and hedging relationships that reference the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) or another reference rate expected to be discontinued due to reference rate reform if certain criteria are met. As of June 2023, Dole modified all of its borrowings and interest rate swaps that referenced LIBOR to now reference the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”). The Company has adopted certain elections under this guidance to account for the debt modifications as continuations of the existing agreements and maintain the hedge effectiveness of its interest rate swaps. The adoption of these elections did not impact Dole’s financial condition, results of operations, cash flows and related disclosures. New Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted The Company considered all new accounting pronouncements not yet adopted and concluded they are not expected to have a material impact. |
