Definition
Program data readiness
Program data readiness is the ability to collect farm-origin evidence once (plots, consent, network answers, reusable records) and mold that same dataset to the regulation, certification, or development program that asks for it — without restarting field collection for every buyer or framework.
Why the term exists
Buyers, auditors and program operators often ask for overlapping facts: where the plot is, who consented, what moved, what can be shared. Restarting capture per framework burns farmer time and breaks the chain. Program data readiness names the opposite: one collection → many molds.
What sits underneath (Tracebud spine)
- 01
Field-first capture
Offline plot mapping and evidence at origin.
- 02
Consent
Share only what the producer agreed to.
- 03
Cascading network requests
Each link answers its own part.
- 04
Reusable compliance records
Evidence that can be reshaped, not rebuilt from scratch.
Example molds
Targets on the same collection model — not a claim that every mold is a finished live module.
EUDR evidence paths ship first (open beta). Other molds use the same collection model with co-build partners.
What it is not
- Not “upload PDFs and hope”
- Not satellite-only screening without producer-linked plots
- Not a separate farm survey for every new buyer brand
