Fig. 6: Stakeholder integration scores for sub-groups: disadvantaged communities and small farms.
From: Stakeholder integration predicts better outcomes from groundwater sustainability policy

Integration scores range between zero and two for each integration component: engage, describe, analyze, and act. For each sub-group, subplots show the percentage of Sustainability Plans evaluated that received a zero, one, or two score within each integration component. Sustainability Plans without a particular subgroup are depicted in gray. In general, integration scores for disadvantaged communities and small farms were overwhelmingly low. When compared with the major stakeholder groups in Fig. 2, in general, disadvantaged communities scored lower than the domestic group, and small farms scored lower than the agriculture group. Two exceptions were disadvantaged communities’ engage score, which was similar to the domestic group, and disadvantaged communities’ describe score, which was higher than the domestic group.
