FAQ Group: Carbon credits

What practices can I implement to optimise the carbon balance?

Implementing regenerative farming practices, such as organic fertilisation, reduced or no tillage, incorporating legumes into crop rotation, cover cropping, reducing fuel usage, and minimising the use of synthetic inputs. All of these suggestions can help optimise your carbon balance and increase your carbon sequestration potential.

What do I need to do to take part?

Initial assessment of eligibility involves the completion of a questionnaire concerning your land management practises, the size of the farm, and its geographical location. We will present you with the contract for your signature if the results are positive.

What is the duration of the Carbon Credit program?

You can leave the program at any point, as long as you give a 30 day notice. Officially, the program lasts 20 years because it is the maximum period for which you can gain benefits. The maximum participation within the program will also maximize the cost per carbon credit.

How much does it cost to participate in the program?

This program is an amazing, unique opportunity to participate at no extra cost. We are here to help you gain extra revenue for practices you already have in place. You just keep doing what you’re doing, and we’ll take care of the rest.

What are Carbon Credits?

Carbon credits are a type of certificate that can be bought and sold on carbon markets, intending to reduce overall emissions by providing an incentive for businesses and individuals to reduce their carbon footprint. Often they are used to offset emissions from other activities.
