Quantity of reduced or diverted food or feed crops
Measurement answer
What this metric measures
Discloses total quantities of food or feed crops reduced or diverted because of high leakage risk activities, separately by crop or crop group and retaining the unit used for each quantity.

Disclosure form
No single formulaReport the source-defined result with its stated fields and method disclosures. The source explicitly requires this as a reportable disclosure for companies reporting land carbon leakage from high leakage risk activities. It is a standalone structured activity-data disclosure, but no universal unit or supported conversion method is prescribed, so it is published as a table with field-level units rather than as a scalar metric.

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.

Source-edition basis: Land Sector and Removals Standard, Version 1.1, published 30 June 2026; effective 1 January 2027.
- Identify the high leakage risk activities giving rise to the reported reduced or diverted crops.
- State the reporting period and organizational, activity, and spatial boundary used for the disclosure.
- Identify each food or feed crop or crop group and whether its quantity was reduced or diverted.
- State the unit used for each reported crop quantity and explain any conversions or aggregation approach.
- Describe the basis used to determine that crop quantities were reduced or diverted.
Record-specific limitations
- Required only for companies reporting land carbon leakage due to high leakage risk activities.
- The source does not prescribe a common unit; quantities must retain their reported field-level units and must not be aggregated across incompatible units.
- This disclosure describes crop reduction or diversion and is not itself a quantified land carbon leakage emission 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.
