Resource information
This Template is designed for standardized description of Sustainable Livestock Management Options by Context (SLiM OxC), in which sustainable livestock management option and its social, economic and ecological contexts are systematically characterized. The SLiM OxC is adaptively developed based on the Template of Sustainable Land Management Options by Context (SLM OxC) of the GeOC tool (GeOC: https://geoc.mel.cgiar.org/, SLM OxC: https://mel.cgiar.org/slm/index). Similar to SLM OxC, the SLiM OxC template inherits the standardized description approach used in the SLM Technology questionnaire of the World Overview of Conservation Approaches and Technology (WOCAT). SLiM OxC also includes particularly relevant fields of Rural Household Multi-Indicator Survey (RHOMIS) questionnaire. However, SLiM OxC is with major modifications and additions with a focus on livestock production and management systems and geographic context. It has six (6) main parts. The filling of information fields are based on either the provided answer choices (drop-down menus on the right side of the information boxes), or texts/figures with structured instruction. Besides optional information fields, there are compulsory fields that form a minimal description of the SLiM data.
