Smallholder Group Calculator

Please Read: This data is to meant to be completed by the group manager. Data must be entered regarding the entire group of farms in the
[proposed] unit of certification. For several input lines, it is possible to use estimates based on information from completed Farm Diaries or other
sources of field-level information. This is mentioned in the "Note" column E. Where the unit is Yes/No, please write exactly Yes or No (not "Y" or
"N"). The group calculator must be completed once per group. This document must be read in conjuction with the Bonsucro Production Standard
for Smallholder Farmers.

Data Privacy: By completing the Bonsucro calculator and submitting to Bonsucro or a certification body, you are giving Bonsucro permission to
access individual mill data and use the data publicly in aggregated form, including transfer to Bonsucro Connect which may be hosted by a third
party. The third party host will be subject to the same rules as Bonsucro. Please contact info@bonsucro.com with any questions.
