Deforestation- and conversion-free biomass production volume and share
Measurement answer
What this metric measures
Reports, by product type, the mass and proportion of biomass production volume, including wastes and residues, that is sourced from land confirmed to be free of deforestation and conversion.

Value structure
Dimensions and units
- Unit
- tonnes; percent (%) — source-defined reporting unit
- Reporting basis
- Not specified in extracted evidence
Unit meaning: Values use tonnes; percent (%) under the disclosed TNFD sector-guidance method, reporting period and boundary.
Table fields and units
- Product type
- Biomass category
- Biomass production volume from confirmed deforestation- and conversion-free land (tonnes)
- Proportion of biomass production volume from confirmed deforestation- and conversion-free land (%)
Published dimensions
- Product type
- Measure type: biomass mass or proportion
- Biomass category: product, waste or residue
- Land-source deforestation- and conversion-free status

Disclosure form
No single formulaReport the source-defined result with its stated fields and method disclosures. This is a standalone structured outcome metric with explicitly specified mass and proportional outputs. It is not merged with the shortlisted sourced-volume-share metric because this source explicitly includes biomass production volume, wastes and residues, and requires both mass and proportion fields.

Evidence and status sources
Sustopedia checked each record-specific claim directly against primary publisher material. Labels distinguish current measurement authority from future compatibility and corroborative, legal, edition, or method status context. Corroborative evidence can support a stated limitation but cannot establish the core measurement by itself.

- Disclose the basis used to confirm that sourced land is free of deforestation and conversion.
- Disclose the product classification used for separate reporting.
- Disclose whether and how wastes and residues are included in reported biomass production volume.
Record-specific limitations
- The extracted evidence does not specify a reference date, cutoff date, verification protocol or geographic disaggregation.
- The metric combines a physical mass field and a proportional field; these should not be represented as a single scalar result.
Interpret this metric with the stated reporting boundary, period convention, value shape, and unit. Results prepared with different boundaries or conventions may not be directly comparable.
Measurement evidence supports the core record-specific claims described above. Corroborative evidence can support limitations, while compatibility and status sources provide their separately labelled context. None of these cards by itself determines an organisation's legal applicability, filing readiness, assurance status, or compliance conclusion.
