Project Information
TITLE: farmB.Carbon - A digitally enabled, measurement-based agricultural carbon project The aim of the project is to generate measurable increases in soil organic carbon (SOC) stocks and reductions in agricultural greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions through the adoption of regenerative land management practices, supported by digital MRV, across annual and perennial cropping systems. The project deploys the farmB Digital MRV System, a data-driven, ISO 14064-2 aligned monitoring framework that enables accurate quantification, supports third-party verification, and long-term tracking of carbon removals and GHG emission reductions at the field level. Project objectives 1. Measurable increase in SOC stocks through regenerative management, indicatively including reduced tillage, cover cropping, organic matter retention, and improved soil stewardship. 2. Reduce GHG emissions from relevant agricultural sources, including fuel consumption, fertilizer use, and soil-related non-CO₂ emissions from crop residues. 3. Enable digital monitoring, informed decision-making, and traceable environmental performance through the integration of MRV and farm management information systems (FMIS) into day-to-day farming. Over its 15-year duration of the first crediting period, the program is indicatively projected to sequester a total of 9.31 Mt CO₂ and result in the avoidance of approximately 1.01 Mt CO₂e, based on conservative ex-ante assumptions.

Additionality
Level 1 additionality
Baseline additionality. Compared to the baseline scenario the project needs to mitigate climate change. That is the project must implement actions that are additional to what would occur compared to the baseline.
Level 2a additionality
Statutory additionality. The project must implement actions that are beyond requirements stipulated in local legislation or regulations. Projects are statutory additional if their implementation and/or operation is not required by any law, statute, or other regulatory framework, agreements, settlements, or other legally binding mandates requiring implementation and operation or requiring implementation of similar measures that would result in the same mitigations in the host country.
Level 3 additionality
Technology, institutional, common practice additionality. The project must implement actions that are subject to barriers of implementation or accelerate deployment of technology or activities and carbon market incentives are essential in overcoming these barriers.
Level 4a additionality
Financial additionality I. A project is financially additional if it results in higher costs or relatively lower profitability than would have otherwise occurred in the baseline scenario.
Level 5 additionality
Policy additionality. Implementation of actions may lie out of the scope of the host country's Nationally Determined Contributions under the Paris Agreement and, therefore, not eligible for international transfer mechanism. When project implementation goes beyond its host country’s climate objectives and lies outside of the scope of its climate action strategy towards its NDCs, it is considered to be policy additional.
