HOW IT WORKS

A traceable path from activity to assessment.

Five connected stages keep source evidence, analysis and reviewer decisions in the same context.

Illustrative farmer walking between rice paddies in morning mist — Field practice · illustrative scene

Register

Establish the field, boundary, season and program context. Capture appropriate permissions and consent.

Field context

Collect

Link observations, photos, farm records, satellite inputs and sensor readings to their sources.

Source evidence

Analyze

Apply relevant criteria, check consistency and surface anomalies, missing evidence and uncertainty.

Preliminary assessment

Verify

Review supporting evidence. Human reviewers handle exceptions and record decisions with reasons.

Review decision

Report

Produce decision-ready records that retain source references, confidence and review status.

Verification and issuance are different decisions. A documented project does not guarantee either.

Each stage has its own evidence requirements, decision-maker and limits. Actual requirements depend on the selected program and methodology.

REVIEW IS A DECISION, NOT A DATA POINT

Uncertainty belongs in the record.

Missing inputs, conflicting observations and unresolved exceptions should be visible — not hidden behind a single score.

ONE WORKED EXAMPLE

A claim follows the same field through every stage.

Illustrative practice-adoption case. Not a live field, production workflow or environmental result.

SAMPLE FIELD A-024 · RICE · DEMONSTRATION SEASON

Define program

Illustrative question: was the specified rice practice implemented on field A-024 in the demonstration season?

Program design

Scope: practice adoption, not quantified impact
Required: boundary, dated activity log and corroborating observation
Method: demonstration criteria v1, not an accredited methodology

Explicit program and evidence requirements
