The Botanical Ethnoknowledge Index (BEI) is calculated using the formula: BEI = (ms * Sg * mc) / (N * St), where 'ms' is the mean number of species reported per participant in a group, 'Sg' is the total number of species reported by all participants in a group, 'mc' is the mean number of citations per species in a group, 'N' is the number of participants in the group, and 'St' is the total number of species reported across all compared groups.
