dc.descriptionAn R project to compile and analyse an excel based meta-dataset of nature based solution outcomes. The meta-dataset was produced in 2023 for a rapid assessment of the economic implications of adopting field-scale NbS practices in non-high income countries. Central to our research approach was an emphasis on profit, moving away from the often-cited gross revenue metrics. Profit, which factors in the costs, gives us an unfiltered view of the farmer's genuine earnings, thereby offering a more realistic understanding of the financial dynamics of NbS. This analysis is informed by 181 studies. The data can be found in the ./data/NBS_extraction_table.xlsx excel file. The analysis script is ./nbs_analysis.R.
