Soil Land EKG Score Classifications
5/5 - WORLD-CLASS SOIL HEALTH
Soil organic matter significantly exceeds regional baseline (typically +100-150% above conventional practices in same climate zone), verified carbon sequestration trajectory, comprehensive biodiversity integration, superior water infiltration and retention relative to soil type, exceptional soil resiliency with proven drought/flood resistance, documented climate adaptation capacity, and measurable ecosystem regeneration across operation scale.
4/5 - PREMIUM SOIL PERFORMANCE
Soil organic matter substantially above regional baseline (+60-100% above conventional), measurable water retention improvements for soil type, active regenerative practices, good biodiversity indicators, strong soil resiliency with demonstrated stress tolerance, improved buffering capacity against environmental extremes, and proven multi-year positive trajectory.
3/5 - ADVANCED SOIL STEWARDSHIP
Soil organic matter moderately above regional baseline (+30-60% above conventional), demonstrated regenerative methods, improving water retention for conditions, emerging biodiversity, moderate soil resiliency with improving stress response, developing climate adaptation strategies, and consistent positive trends over 2-3 years.
2/5 - TRANSITIONING PRACTICES
Soil organic matter slightly above regional baseline (+10-30% above conventional), beginning regenerative implementation, basic soil health improvements, limited biodiversity, developing soil resiliency with basic stress mitigation, early-stage climate adaptation efforts, demonstrable departure from conventional methods.
1/5 - BASELINE/CONVENTIONAL
Soil organic matter at or below regional conventional average, standard agricultural practices, limited biological activity, typical chemical input dependency, minimal ecosystem integration, limited soil resiliency with high vulnerability to environmental stress, reactive management during climate extremes.

Nutrient Score Classifications
5/5 - OPTIMAL NUTRITIONAL DENSITY
Exceeds developmental requirements across all priority nutrients (iron, zinc, omega-3s, vitamins), verified superior bioavailability, comprehensive micronutrient profile exceeding WHO/FAO standards by >50%.
4/5 - SUPERIOR NUTRITION
Significantly exceeds baseline in priority developmental nutrients (40-50%+ above conventional), strong micronutrient diversity, meets or exceeds global standards for child development nutrition.
3/5 - ENHANCED NUTRITION
Measurably above conventional nutrition (20-40% higher priority nutrients), good micronutrient presence, meets WHO/FAO minimum requirements with some superior markers for child development.
2/5 - ADEQUATE NUTRITION
Meets basic nutritional standards (within 20% of conventional), acceptable micronutrient levels, satisfies minimum global requirements but limited exceptional markers for optimal development.
1/5 - BASELINE NUTRITION
Standard conventional nutritional profile, meets basic USDA minimums, limited micronutrient diversity, minimal exceptional markers for pediatric developmental optimization.
Total Combined Score
EXCEPTIONAL PERFORMANCE - Exceptional environmental stewardship with superior nutritional outcomes. Strong performance across both categories with particular excellence in one area. Demonstrates commitment to regenerative practices with above-average nutritional results. Significantly outperforms conventional agriculture.

Total Combined Score Classifications
9.0 - 10.0: WORLD-CLASS EXCELLENCE
"Industry-defining performance setting new standards for regenerative nutrition"
Exceptional achievement across both soil health and nutritional density. Soil organic matter significantly exceeds regional baseline (+100-150%), with verified carbon sequestration, exceptional resiliency, and comprehensive biodiversity. Nutritional profile exceeds developmental requirements across all priority nutrients by >50% above WHO/FAO standards. Represents the pinnacle of regenerative agriculture with measurably superior food quality outcomes that set industry benchmarks.
8.0 - 8.9: PREMIUM LEADERSHIP
"Outstanding performance demonstrating comprehensive excellence"
Superior performance in both environmental stewardship and nutritional quality. Soil organic matter substantially above regional baseline (+60-100%) with strong resiliency and proven ecosystem regeneration. Nutritional density significantly exceeds baseline (40-50%+ above conventional) across priority developmental nutrients. Demonstrates advanced regenerative practices with documented benefits to both land health and human nutrition. Top-tier sustainable agriculture performance.
7.0 - 7.9: EXCEPTIONAL PERFORMANCE
"Exceptional environmental stewardship with superior nutritional outcomes"
Strong achievement across both categories with particular excellence in one or both areas. Soil organic matter moderately above regional baseline (+30-60%) with improving resiliency and emerging biodiversity. Nutritional profile measurably above conventional (20-40% higher priority nutrients) meeting or exceeding global child development standards. Significantly outperforms conventional agriculture in both ecosystem health and food quality. Clear commitment to regenerative excellence.
6.0 - 6.9: ABOVE STANDARD
"Good environmental practices with solid nutritional quality"
Consistently above-average performance in both soil health and nutrition. Soil organic matter slightly above regional baseline (+10-30%) with developing resiliency and basic biodiversity improvements. Nutritional profile within 20% above conventional with good micronutrient presence meeting WHO/FAO minimums. Shows meaningful improvement over standard agricultural methods with measurable benefits to both environmental impact and food quality. Solid foundation for continued advancement.
5.0 - 5.9: MEETING STANDARDS
"Baseline performance with potential for improvement"
Meets basic requirements in both categories but lacks exceptional markers. Soil organic matter at regional conventional average with limited resiliency and minimal ecosystem integration. Nutritional profile meets basic USDA minimums with standard micronutrient levels. Represents conventional agricultural baseline with opportunities for regenerative transition and nutritional enhancement.
Below 5.0: IMPROVEMENT NEEDED
"Substandard performance requiring intervention"
Performance below acceptable standards in one or both categories. Soil health below regional baseline with poor resiliency, degraded ecosystem function, or declining trends. Nutritional quality below standard thresholds for optimal child development. Requires immediate management changes and regenerative intervention to restore both ecological function and food quality outcomes.
