Point System (Numerical)
|
|
In order to establish a frame of reference for consumers the classification system was devised using an "ideal farm" as a point of comparison, that means certain conditions are fixed, (that never happens in nature). In order to allow theoretical qualitative values to be used. As a result we have a point system that is explained in the introduction and translates as follows: The farm landscape 5000 points (5%) Animal presence 35,000 points (35%) Farm fertility 35,000 points (35%) Production 5,000 points (5%) Influence of the farmer 20,000 points (20%) Total 100,000 points (100%) Discretionary points 30,000 points These points may be used by the selection committee
members, considering subjective aspects that can be inferred from the
Discretionary Questions, or by direct contact with the farmer |
