Sites with an identified caretaker (count)
Definition
The number of assessed sites whose latest site assessment scores the caretaker criterion as met: a person or body has undertaken to care for the trees, recorded as an agent in a role, never by name (ADR-0007). An input: stewardship is arranged before planting.
purpose
To show how many sites have someone to water and protect the trees, per site type and place, before the stewardship outcomes are read.
rationale
A tree without a caretaker is the commonest loss in the reference surveys; counting the criterion as scored keeps the input to what the assessor confirmed.
