Sorghum from Midwests USA

Absolute reductions are calculated as a delta between the baseline calculation and the lower GhG inventory from regenerative practices. The baseline is derived from calculating the GhG fluxes on adjacent land with similar topography and vegetation that utilize business-as-usual practices. The purchaser is able to reduce their scope 3 category 1 emissions when they finalize payment on their order.

By procuring commodities with lower emissions, businesses can reduce their Scope 3 emissions directly and/or eliminate the need to purchase separate carbon removals for those emissions.

At $100 per tonne of CO₂e, these reductions provide significant cost savings while aligning procurement with climate goals. This approach offers a practical pathway for companies to lower their carbon footprint through sustainable sourcing.

Claimable reductions represent the delta between the baselines vs. on-farm implementation of better practices, in regards to the GhG inventory (tCO₂e). Practices such as regenerative agriculture, silvopasture, and optimized waste management are the contributing factor for reduced scope 3 reductions.
