Traceability levels of waste and residue feedstocks
Measurement answer
What this metric measures
Reports the original biomass type, weight and proportion of waste and residue feedstocks by traceability level and source-origin granularity.
Specification
Metric specification
- Result format
- Structured table
- Unit
- tonnes and percent (%) — source-defined reporting unit
- Reporting basis
- Reporting period; period specification is not provided in the supplied extract.
- Aggregation
- Report feedstock weight and proportion for each traceability category, disaggregated by original biomass type and applicable origin granularity.
- Pillar
- Environmental
- Topic
- Traceability of waste and residue feedstock sourcing
- Controlled domain
- Supply chain and value chain
- Entity type
- Metric
Reporting boundary
Waste and residue feedstocks sourced by the reporting organization; origin traceability extends to country and sub-national origin, with feedstock-specific point-of-origin requirements.

Disclosure form
No single formulaReport the source-defined result with its stated fields and method disclosures. AF.C22.1 is a standalone structured sector metric. It differs from general waste-generated metrics because it concerns sourced waste and residue feedstocks and requires origin traceability, rather than waste arising from the reporting organization's operations.

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.

- Describe the traceability categories used.
- Disaggregate results by original biomass type.
- Identify country and sub-national origin.
- For agricultural and natural-system residues, disclose production-site-level traceability.
- For processing residues and waste-derived materials, disclose the point of origin or first collection point.
Record-specific limitations
- The supplied extract does not specify a reporting-period convention.
- Required traceability granularity varies by feedstock type.
- Production-site traceability applies to agricultural and natural-system residues, while point-of-origin or first-collection-point traceability applies to processing residues and waste-derived materials.
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.
