Ecosystem Services
Ground-truth data is the foundation for climate-smart commodities and carbon markets. At AgriCapture, we rely on actual field-level data, not regional defaults, to measure, monitor, report, and verify your climate impact with accuracy.
Whether you’re reducing greenhouse gas emissions, increasing carbon sequestration, or providing environmental co-benefits, AgriCapture’s field-level approach brings credibility to your climate impact claims.
Our Process
Connect with the Grower
Our Field Data Staff connects with growers to understand their unique operation and capture relevant operational data that can’t be obtained remotely.
Monitor Practices Remotely
We use remote sensing to monitor sustainable practices at the field level, reducing the burden for farmers, ranchers, and landowners while increasing credibility relative to self-reporting and surveys.
Quantify Greenhouse Gas Emissions
We integrate with biogeochemical models such as COMET and DNDC to quantify greenhouse gas emission data and soil carbon sequestration using the latest peer-reviewed science.
Verify Our Findings
We undergo third-party verification to ensure a high degree of rigor around our process and results.
The Difference Is in the Data
Weekly Satellite Monitoring
Our Data Management team utilizes satellite imagery to collect time-series imagery and detect changes in land use over time. By processing and analyzing this data, we are able to measure and monitor irrigation practices, residue management practices, and vegetation.
Aggregating Field Operations Data
We provide low-burden solutions for farmers, ranchers, and landowners to integrate field maps and documentation of irrigation, tillage, fertilizer application, and other operational data into our database management system.
Direct Soil Sampling
Using our proprietary soil stratification software, we apply a multi-staged stratification approach to select soil sampling points on a property. Our Data Management team then analyzes the results of the sampling, allowing us to calculate soil organic carbon and bulk density.
Backed by the USDA
In conjunction with The United States’ plan to achieve economy-wide, net-zero emissions by 2050, the USDA will invest $300 million to improve measurement, monitoring, reporting, and verification (MMRV) of greenhouse gas emissions and carbon sequestration in climate-smart agriculture and forestry.
AgriCapture’s MMRV methods build on our existing work with the USDA’s Partnerships for Climate-Smart Commodities Program to align with federal guidelines.
