Problem
Soil degradation and the lack of scalable, accurate measurements of soil organic carbon (SOC) hinder regenerative agriculture, climate‑resilient food production, and the ability of landowners, supply chains and financial institutions to meet net‑zero and sustainability targets.
Solution
Downforce Technologies provides a science‑led, data‑driven platform that quantifies SOC across farms, portfolios and entire supply chains using a combination of high‑resolution satellite imagery, ground‑based sensors and proprietary analytics. The platform delivers baseline SOC maps, predicts carbon sequestration potential, and generates actionable land‑management recommendations. It also offers a standardized MRV (measure‑report‑verify) workflow aligned with ISO‑14064, enabling users to track, report and verify carbon outcomes for regulatory compliance, carbon‑credit programs and stakeholder disclosure. By delivering investment‑grade, verifiable data at any scale, Downforce helps stakeholders accelerate regenerative practices, improve yields, reduce input costs and demonstrate progress toward net‑zero goals.
Target Audience
Primary customers are landowners and farmers seeking regenerative management insights, and food, beverage, fashion and textile companies that need verifiable soil‑carbon data to meet ESG, net‑zero and supply‑chain resilience objectives.
