Pacific Sustainable Commodities Index
Pillar Report
A working mock-up of how PSCI's five pillars could be reported from CertLink's own audit trail — farm-gate purchases, grower registrations, and internal compliance audits — before any indicator has been weighted into a composite score.
Pillar 01 — Price & Value Capture
What growers are actually paid
Farm-gate transactions against a world reference price, split by certification status.
logged
| Farm-gate transactions loggedGrowerpurchase, Dec 2022–Apr 2026 | 251 |
| Organic-labelled purchasesGrowerpurchase.Cert = ORG | 167 (66.5%) |
| Conventional-labelled purchasesGrowerpurchase.Cert = CON/CNV | 84 (33.5%) |
| Reference price series trackedCommodity_Prices + Coconut_Price | 5 commodities |
| Farm-gate ÷ world reference rationot yet calculable — reference series only 7 days deep | -- |
Purchases by certification status
251 logged transactions, all-time to date.
Pillar 02 — Market Access
Who's connected to a buyer
Registration, contracts, and active buyer-network coverage across the grower base.
logged
| Registered growersGrowerSubscription | 1,136 |
| Signed farmer agreementFarmer_Agreement_Signed — coverage TBD | field present |
| Buyer network recorded per purchaseGrowerpurchase.Network / OPPCode | field present |
| Onboarding fully completeGrowerSubscription.SubscriptionComplete — coverage TBD | field present |
Active-transacting-grower and onboarding-completion rates aren't computed yet — next pass once coverage on the fields above is confirmed.
Pillar 03 — Organic & Certification
Certified volume & compliance
Organic share of purchased volume, set against internal audit and compliance outcomes.
confirm
| Internal audits on fileGrowerIA, Sep 2020–May 2026 | 454 |
| Compliance status trackedGrowerIA.ComplianceStatus (Open/Closed) | per audit |
| Certification status fieldGrowerSubscription.EUstatus — needs confirming as source of truth over the ACO/NOP/EU booleans | 6 states |
| Organic share of logged purchasesGrowerpurchase.Cert | 66.5% |
Why this pillar is "pending"
ACO_certifiedorganic reads false on all 1,136 grower records — almost certainly an unmaintained field rather than an accurate signal. Before this pillar reports a certified-grower count, confirm with the CertLink team whether EUstatus is the field actually kept current.
Pillar 04 — Livelihood & Social
Income, labour, and who's counted
Household income, labour conditions, and participation — including where the data goes quiet.
flagged
| Grower gender recordedGrowerSubscription.GrowerSexMF | 475 of 1,136 (41.8%) |
| — of which femaleGrowerSexMF = Female | 49 (10.3% of recorded) |
| Copra cutters on fileCopra_Cutters — flat rate | 13, at $15/unit |
| Crop / livestock types tracked per growerGrowerSubscription, diversification proxy | 20+ fields |
Gender field coverage
58% blank is the single largest data gap in the index — priority fix before Pillar 4 can report reliably.
Pillar 05 — Environmental
Land, and what's still missing
Certified land under management now; carbon, energy, and natural capital are next scope.
| Audits with certified area recordedGrowerIA.TotalCertifiedarea | 374 of 454 (82.4%) |
