Final report - Integrated Land Management Bureau

Indicator suggested at workshop Rationale for not including them in final
recommended list
Percent of food that is obtained noncommercially
Does not meet Criteria 7: “Where there are no
existing data available at the appropriate scale
and boundary overlap is a problem, is primary
data collection logistically possible and
affordable to measure this indicator?”
(Rationale: Difficult and expensive to measure.
Would require individual households to track
their non-commercial food sources on weekly
or monthly basis. Could be done by individual
communities but not recommended on a plan
area basis).
