Carbon Farm Planning Services Available Now

Oct 14, 2020 at 8:00am

Carbon Farm Plans identify practices that increase carbon sequestration, reduce greenhouse gas emissions, and quantify climate benefits of implementing a variety of practices at the farm scale.
 
In many cases, carbon farming practices, like compost and mulch application and hedgerow plantings, provide many additional benefits, like:
 
·     reducing your water demand

·     improving the health of your soils

·     reducing the risk of erosion

·     reducing farming costs.

 
Want to figure out what farming practices will work on your land to maximize the transfer of excess greenhouse gases from the atmosphere into soil and vegetation for long-term storage? Then a carbon farm plan is for you!
 
Carbon Farm Plans may be developed for vineyard, range, orchard, and forest properties.
