Context

The project evaluated the feasibility of securing carbon credits for a multinational food company’s fruit and vegetable producers by adapting the CAR Soil Protocol to the national context. It aimed to identify additionality opportunities across diverse regions and farming systems, enabling producers to monetize sustainable practices while supporting broader corporate sustainability goals.

Our Expert Role

Led scoping and Concept Note development; adapted U.S. Soil Protocol for national use; conducted outreach to producers and technical staff; designed data collection processes and regionalized additionality assessments; developed safeguards aligned with CAR’s inclusivity framework; performed preliminary carbon quantification using approved models.

Outcomes Delivered

Established eligibility roadmap for producer participation; secured internal alignment on credit potential; submitted protocol adaptation Concept Note; supported future registration pathway for scalable, high-integrity ALM carbon credits.
