Enrolling supply

Corn & soy

Row crops are where regenerative practices change measured emissions intensity at the source. Through supply-shed attribution and mass balance, that verified reduction attaches to grain and oilseed volume as a Carbon Inventory Certificate — building on existing regenerative-agriculture pathways rather than replacing them.

Instrument

Carbon Inventory Certificate

Custody model

Supply-shed attribution + mass balance

Where it lands

Scope 3, Category 1

01 · The path

From the field to the elevator to the claim.

Origin · Farm

Tier 3 measurement of practice-driven intensity change at the field.

Transform · Elevator / crush

Supply-shed attribution and mass balance carry performance across aggregation.

Settle · Feed, food, or fuel buyer

Retires the certificate into Scope 3, Category 1 against a specific purchase.

02 · Getting started

How a buyer attaches a CIC this cycle.

01 — Identify a grain or oilseed line.

Corn or soy volume you buy where the origin supply shed can be defined.

02 — We attribute across the supply shed.

Measured performance is allocated to your volume via mass balance, not averaged.

03 — Issue against verified performance.

Tier 3 data generates certificates with evidence, intensity, and vintage attached.

04 — Retire into your inventory.

The reduction settles in Scope 3, Category 1 — single-use, no double count.

Frequently asked

Corn & soy, answered.

Is corn and soy issue-ready today?

Corn and soy supply is enrolling through regenerative-agriculture pathways. The instrument and custody model are the same as issue-ready commodities; supply-shed enrollment status is shown in the public registry and scoped during onboarding.

Do I have to change my supplier?

No. Attribution works across the supply shed you already buy from — the point is to attach verified performance to existing purchases, not to re-route procurement.

How is this different from a soil-carbon offset?

It is inventory-linked, not an offset. The reduction is measured at the field, attributed to your specific volume, and retired inside your Scope 3, Category 1 inventory — it does not float in a separate voluntary market.
