Description:
Proposal for future change in ISIC - Agric - SPC

Request

Some agriculture-related activities which are very common in the Pacific cause classification problems e.g. coconuts. - You can eat them or drink them, or you can: (1) crack them open and feed them to the pigs; (2) get the meat out and dry it to make copra for the oil mill; (3) grate the meat for coconut cream (mainly used in cooking); (4) burn the shell to make charcoal (it's not trivial, many families use lots of charcoal for cooking). - Is (1) in 1533 or does it stay in 0113? - (3) is really food preparation for own consumption - is this manufacturing? - Where does (4) belong in ISIC?

Discussion

Proposal to be forwarded to the Technical Subgroup for comment. One of six proposals received from SPC; see also registry ID# 473, 589, 590, 591 and 593.

Decision

Pending. To be considered for next revision.
