Download the full eBook
Food production is responsible for 28% of global GHG emissions – and industrial agriculture composes over half of these. As more and more regulatory measures demand visibility into scope 3 GHG emissions (emissions resulting from
operation in the value chain), the challenge of carbon accounting in agriculture becomes more pressing, and so does the need to reduce agricultural carbon emissions.
Luckily, carbon accounting in agriculture is not merely a challenge – it is also an opportunity to enhance operational efficiency, corporate sustainability, and the financial bottom line.
“Carbon markets – opportunities and challenges for the agri-food industry” explores the what, how, and why of carbon accounting in agriculture:
- What are the mechanics of carbon emissions in agriculture?
- How can regenerative agriculture practices create growth opportunities?
- What’s the difference between carbon credits and carbon offsets?
- How to start the carbon accounting process? (and how to leverage it)
