Certificates of Top Quality
Why are CARBOFARM's CO₂ certificates particularly high quality?
CARBOFARM has developed an innovative MRV process that effectively eliminates issues such as double counting, erroneous estimates, and fraud. The formation of humus in the fields of participating farmers is sampled by independent, certified soil samplers according to standardised procedures and subsequently analysed and verified in accredited laboratories. Estimates based on satellite images or other indirect methods are deliberately excluded to ensure maximum accuracy and transparency.
CARBOFARM is developing a blockchain solution for the MRV process that enables transparency, fraud protection, and notarised data access. This creates efficiency through automation and seamless traceability back to the source.
Superiority of Agricultural Projects
In general perception and to some extent in science, there are still reservations and misjudgements regarding the effectiveness of regenerative agriculture.
It is true that the development of regenerative agriculture is not yet complete, that due to different starting conditions in agricultural enterprises and areas, there are also different paths to the goal, and that these variable parameters can sometimes be confusing..
Fact is that the path is right and regenerative agriculture plays a key role in addressing our multiple challenges
- in environmental protection,
- in biodiversity,
- in the restoration of soil health,
- in the production of healthy food,
- in the sustainable profitability of agriculture,
- and can contribute particularly to the binding of carbon in the soil.
Regenerative agriculture has the potential to permanently sequester up to 30% of total European emissions in the soil. Among the various concepts for eliminating CO2 from the atmosphere, it is undoubtedly the most sustainable and environmentally friendly way to achieve the aforementioned goals. Filtering CO2 on a large scale from the air or pumping it into abandoned mines are not solutions in the sense of a sustainable circular economy..
