How Regenerative Scores Are Calculated
The regenerative score aggregates the trait dimensions shown in each breed's radar chart (excluding climate tolerance, which is already factored into zone suitability):
- Profit Potential (2× weight)
- Cost Efficiency
- Management Ease
- System Resilience
- Scale Compatibility
- Market Access
Aggregation: Each trait is scored 1.0-3.0 (Limited → Typical → Exceptional). The regenerative score = (sum of weighted trait scores ÷ maximum possible) × 100. Profit Potential and System Value receive 2× weight because economic viability and ecosystem contribution are critical for supporting the transition to regenerative practices.
