Title
Proposal for future change in ISIC - Agric - SPC
Request
ISIC 0111 is too broad, eg. in the Pacific swamp taro
farming is completely different from growing manioca. Certainly in
Australia there are major differences between wheat farming and rice farming
in terms of the activities involved. It seems odd to me that they appear to
be lumped together because of the similarity of their outputs as "cereal
products". There are some really different products AND processes all lumped
together in 0111.
Discussion
Proposal to be forwarded to the Technical Subgroup for comment.
One of six proposals received from SPC; see also registry ID# 473, 589, 591, 592 and 593.
Decision
Pending. To be considered for next revision.
