Problem
Actors in agricultural value chains face fragmented data, high costs, and limited incentives to adopt regenerative, low‑carbon farming practices, making it difficult to secure sustainable supply, meet climate reporting obligations, and monetize carbon sequestration.
Solution
Carbone Farmers offers an end‑to‑end platform, FarmGate Metrics, that guides cooperatives, processors, distributors and investors through the transition to regenerative agriculture. Agronomists conduct on‑site diagnostics and co‑create action plans, while the platform records field data, calculates tier‑3 emission factors and additional environmental benefits, and generates ISO‑14067‑certified carbon footprints compatible with GHG Protocol, SBTi and CSRD reporting. The resulting emission reductions and carbon sequestration are quantified, certified under the French “Label bas carbone,” and can be monetized as credits or used for tiered supply‑chain premiums, creating a transparent financial incentive for farmers and a verifiable sustainability claim for downstream companies.
Target Audience
Primary customers are agricultural cooperatives, commodity traders, food processors and distributors seeking to decarbonize their upstream supply, as well as investors and corporations that need verified carbon credits and ESG data from French regenerative farms.
