Farmers Get Paid to Restore Degraded Land
Every climate-smart farming practice — from agroforestry to no-till — captures carbon. Agri-Carbon turns these actions into verified carbon credits and pays smallholder farmers directly via mobile money. 🌱💰
The Problem
Over 500 million smallholder farmers steward the world's farmland and already use regenerative practices that sequester carbon. Yet, less than 1% can access carbon markets due to:
High Verification Costs
Traditional carbon credit verification is expensive and complex, making it inaccessible to smallholder farmers.
Lack of Digital Tools
Farmers lack access to digital platforms that can track and verify their sustainable practices.
Fragmented Scale
Individual farmers lack the scale needed to participate in traditional carbon markets.
Our Solution
Agri-Carbon Digital Cooperative
A mobile-first platform that enables farmers to:
- Log land-restoring practices (e.g., cover crops, agroforestry, no-till farming)
- Verify impact using photos, GPS coordinates, and satellite data
- Earn direct income from carbon credit sales via mobile money
We turn sustainable farming into a reliable revenue stream — making restoration profitable at the farm level.
How It Works
Simple steps to start earning from your sustainable farming practices
Farmer Onboarding
Register via smartphone — provide name, phone number, farm location, and size.
Log Practices
Capture photos and GPS, then select practices like "agroforestry" or "no-till farming."
Carbon Verified
The platform estimates CO₂ sequestration using science-backed factors and remote sensing validation.
Get Paid
Farmers receive 70–80% of carbon credit revenue instantly via mobile money (e.g., M-Pesa, Tigo Pesa).
