Description:
Proposal for future change in ISIC - Agric - SPC
Request
Proposing to assign more detailed activity codes for
"fruit" and "nuts" in 0113 - coconuts are
positively ubiquitous throughout the Pacific, often growing wild in such
profusion it is difficult to distinguish them from "farmed" ones. So you
might have a household putting a lot of effort into "farming" pawpaws
(papaya) but they will almost inevitably have a lot of coconuts as well. The
inputs and outputs of the 2 crops are quite different, and should be treated
separately in theory. Is this achievable? Proposal made for separate
classes for "fruit" ,"nuts" and "beverage and spice crops".
Discussion
Proposal to be circulated to the Technical Subgroup for comment.
One of six proposals received from SPC; see also registry ID# 589, 590, 591, 592 and 593.
Decision
Pending. To be considered for next revision.
