Scientifically Robust:
Measurement based system with independently verified accuracy. We are accredited through publicly accessible peer reviewed science.
For Farmers
Over 4-years of repeat monitoring of tens of thousands of hectares, we have confirmed and evidenced the long held assumption that conventional agricultural as a system is continuing to erode SOC stocks.
Our SOC and emissions data is clearly evidencing the extra resilience of regenerative systems against the effects of climate change. Regeneratively farmed projects better protected their soils against the effects of the high winter 23/24 rainfall through minimised cultivation, cover and catch crops and earlier autumn drilling to ensure a living root and canopy cover. These projects reported SOC increases while more conventionally farmed projects saw SOC decline.
The Long Term Rewards of Regenerative Farming as a System
Better soil structure and biology, reduced diesel and input use, maintained yields and access to carbon revenue for increased SOC stocks.
- Improve your soil structure naturally - better aeration, root penetration and drainage leads to efficient access to nutrients and water, while reducing the risk of erosion.
- Enhanced water retention leading to increased resilience to drought.
- Increased nutrient availability from the recycling of organic matter to provide a slow and steady supply for plant growth.
- Increased microbial activity from increased biological diversity, playing a vital role in nutrient cycling and disease suppression.
- Climate change mitigation by removing atmospheric CO2 and sequestering it in the soil as SOC. Credits are issued by the ecometric system for every tonne of CO2 removed more than is emitted over the monitoring year, as a performance related, new revenue stream.
How to earn credits
You, the farmer, have the regenerative practices to reverse declining SOC stocks. We, ecometric, have the monitoring system to measure and relate SOC change to management practice cause. We, ecometric, have the Regen registry governed credit class to issue high integrity credits for you to sell. Access your reward for soil carbon sequestration by joining our project ecosystem today!
- We generate carbon credits by directly measuring changes in the SOC stock levels and deducting tCO2e emitted from food and fibre production during the same monitoring period. Where SOC Change - GHG Emissions is positive, credits are issued for every positive tCO2e.
- The carbon credits are owned by you with complete control over whether to hold, use as an inset within other diverse business elements or sell into the VCM.
- ecometric charges for its Project Development and Monitoring Service and does not take a commission from the sale.
- ecometric continues to broaden market access to credit buyers through on line market places, warehouses and brokers.
- You have complete control over timing, terms and price.
- 3-years of sell-out Credit Sales evidence the high integrity status of this Regen Registry and ecometric Methodology and Credit Class System, meeting the demands of the most discerning buyer.
Our Process
Step One:
Project Design & Approval
Step Two:
Baseline monitor
Baseline SOC (Year 0): Soil Sampling + Satellite + AI
Baseline Emissions: MGMT Data + IPCC Calculator
Step Three:
Re-monitor (+12 months)
SOC Change = Y1 SOC - Y0 SOC
Carbon Balance = SOC Change - Y1 Emissions
1 Credit generated per 1tCO2e positive balance
Step Four:
Independent Validation & Verification proves that data is complete and correct
Step Five:
Issue Credits
Credits issued for your trade on your terms
Step Six:
Sell Credits
We can assist and advise on credit sales if required with multiple routes to market
Carbon Yield
Carbon sequestration is determined by the interaction between soil, climate and management. A key benefit of being part of the ecometric community is access to the anonymized performance of all other projects. Only through knowledge share can we optimize crop and carbon yield and halt the global decline in SOC stocks.
Carbon Revenue
Satisfying Buyer demands for accuracy, transparency, immutability and independent audit through 3-years of sell-out credit sales.
- Multiple commission free routes to market
- 3-years of proven trading
- Premium prices achieved
Why choose us?
Transparent up-front cost:
Compared to the industry average of 30-50%, we take no commission on the credits sold.
Premium Prices:
Integrity determines buyer trust and secures a price premium. In 3-years of trading, the prices of ecometric credits have increased consecutively, year-on-year.
High Demand:
PR from prestigious buyers like the Mercedes AMG F1 Team is continuing to raise ecometric's profile to increase demand. To date all Credits have sold out pre-issuance, with future demand outstripping supply.
Soil Data & Farm Optimisation:
We measure every field, every crop, every year. As a result, our farmers benefit from accurate soil health data for every rotation, enabling evidence based management decisions. By relating SOC change to management practices and knowledge sharing cross-project, system change can be adopted with the confidence of measured success within the project community.
