DNV, a global leader in assurance services, has officially verified Agreena’s innovative soil carbon programme, marking a major milestone in sustainable farming practices.
The certification validates Agreena’s efforts to enable farmers to transition to regenerative agriculture while contributing to carbon sequestration and climate change mitigation.
Agreena’s soil carbon programme is among the first of its kind, designed to incentivise farmers to adopt sustainable practices such as reduced tillage, cover cropping, and crop rotation. These techniques not only enhance soil health and biodiversity but also capture and store carbon dioxide, helping to combat greenhouse gas emissions.
The verification by DNV ensures that Agreena’s carbon credits adhere to rigorous international standards, giving them credibility and market value.
Farmers participating in the programme can now monetise their sustainability efforts, receiving financial compensation for their contributions to environmental preservation.
