Carbon Credits

Carbon credits are tradable certificates representing the reduction or removal of one metric ton of carbon dioxide (CO₂) or its equivalent in other greenhouse gases (GHGs). In agriculture, farmers earn carbon credits by adopting sustainable practices that either capture CO₂ in the soil or reduce emissions, such as:

  • Conservation Tillage 
  • Cover Cropping & Crop Rotation

  • Sustainable Livestock Practices 


These credits can be sold to companies looking to offset their carbon footprint. This creates an incentive for farmers to adopt eco-friendly practices while enabling businesses to meet their sustainability goals.
