The Enabling the Business of Agriculture project tracks biennial regulatory and procedural changes for each indicator. Depending on the data impact, certain changes between July 1, 2016 and June 30, 2018 are classified as reforms.
- For the legal components, a reform is considered to be any change in laws and regulations that leads to an improvement of a score from 0 to 1 on any of the sub-questions.
- For the time and cost components, a reform is considered to be any decrease from the previously published data that is 10% or more. Comparable data are used to calculate the changes, eliminating any impact of variations in exchange rates and/or income per capita.
