High-Impact Scope 3 Reductions Start with Rice
Scope 3 Solutions
Rice cultivation represents one of the largest sources of agricultural methane emissions—making it a high-impact opportunity for Scope 3 reductions.
We offer services for measuring and reducing supply chain emissions.
- Product footprint: develop rice-specific emission factors based on where and how the rice in your supply chain is grown.
- Emissions reductions: design and implement targeted projects that deliver measurable greenhouse gas (GHG) reductions within your rice supply chain.

Product Footprint
AgriCapture provides a product-specific emission factor report for rice sourced within our regenerative rice program. These reports can be seamlessly integrated into your Scope 3 inventory and are aligned with the GHG Protocol Product Standard.
Our Product Footprint accounting approach:
- Covers key life cycle stages including land use conversion, input acquisition, and on-farm cultivation
- Utilizes field-level data and region-specific emission factors to remove reliance on generic industry averages

Scope 3 Emissions Reductions
AgriCapture provides end-to-end services that enable investments in improved cultivation practices that deliver real, verified emissions reductions. Using intervention-based accounting principles, we work directly in your supply chain to design and implement GHG reduction projects.
- Baseline and Intervention Scenarios
Define the baseline (business-as-usual) emissions and model the impact of specific practice changes (e.g., alternate wetting & drying, no-till). - Farmer Recruitment and Enrollment
Identify, engage, and enroll growers in targeted regions through AgriCapture’s farmer network and secure participation agreements. - Field-Level Data Collection
Collect and validate acreage, management practices, water usage, and other inputs at the field level using proprietary tools and grower surveys. - Modeled GHG Reductions
Model avoided methane and nitrous oxide emissions based on regulatory-aligned methodologies and crop-specific emission factors. - Reporting & Verification Support
AgriCapture provides a complete reporting package with verified emissions and water impact data, giving you the documentation needed for credible Scope 3 disclosure and sustainability reporting.

Monitoring, Reporting, & Verification
Farmer Enrollment
The AgriCapture Enrollment Platform allows for easy submission of field-level data, contract signing, and ongoing participation.
Data Collection
Field-level data is captured directly from grower’s equipment or operation records and backed up with remote sensing technology.
Data Management
AgriCapture’s Acre360 Inventory Management streamlines enrollment, shapefile management, contract tracking, boundary quality control, and data analysis.
Modeling & Verification
Results are modeled using validated tools and subject to third-party verification.
