ObjectivesOverall objective: Integrate nutrient diversity in agriculture, market and ecosystem assessments and planning
Specific objectives: 1. Monitor the diversity in nutritional composition produced
or supplied by agriculture and market systems2. Identify species/ varieties that add nutritional diversity to
a system3. Evaluate sensitivity/ resilience of a system for providing
nutritional diversity
Calculation (1)• Uses functional diversity metric calculations – from ecological
sciences to combine traits with species composition• Datasets: 1) species composition of plot/ farm/ market; 2)
food composition of species/ varieties
Calculation (2)Free statistical software to calculate Diversity metrics
