Carbon farmingis good for business
Access an additional revenue stream through carbon certificates based on climate-friendly farming practices.
We're here to help you enhance both the economic and environmental success of your farm.
Regenerative agriculture is widely regarded as an effective method to reduce greenhouse gases and turn soil into carbon
sinks, removing CO2 from the atmosphere. As the quality of your soil improves, so does the profitability of your business.

“One thing is that we have less overpasses, but most importantly, we reduce the evaporation of moisture from the soil, and that leaves more water for the plants. This is extremely important under these dry conditions we experience from time to time.”
– Hans Damgaard

“When learning how to refrain from tilling the soil every single year, a whole new world opens. Biology can replace diesel and steel, and as an added benefit, you will have more beneficial insects, vipers, larks and partridges.”
– Søren Ilsøe
Four practices for the highest certificate yield
Reduce soil erosion, increase soil organic matter, improve soil health and biodiversity, and strengthen water retention capacity and resistance against flooding.
Reduced soil disturbance
Optimal use of cover crops
Use of organic fertilisers
Optimal residue management
The more you transition, the more you earn
Choose the farm fields you want to include in the certification programme and we will help you create a step-by-step implementation strategy for your agriculture practices.
Step by step
How to become a carbon farmer:
1.
Enter field data on our platform and advisors can help you with planning your field strategies. The programme records different cultivation activities to calculate your potential carbon removals and reductions, and your projected income.
2.
After the harvest season, you log in to the platform and report your actual field data (actual yields, fertiliser and fuel use, etc.)
3.
Our internationally accredited and third-party validated programme then quantifies your farm’s carbon removals and reductions, and our team issues the verified CO2e certificates.
4.
You can then choose to keep your certificates, sell them yourself or, alternatively, ask us to sell them to verified companies on your behalf based on current market demand and prices. You even have the choice to get paid before your certificates are issued through our early payout option.
Your choice is what makes us different
AgreenaCarbon give you the flexibility to choose what you do with the certificates after each annual carbon harvest.
And now you can even receive money upfront for your estimated number of earned certificates. Agreena will validate the data you provide, then offer you a pre-purchase price to buy the rights to your GHG removals based on the best estimation of the certificates you’d receive after certification, and current market conditions and prices.
If you accept the offer, you’ll be paid out before the certificates are issued – ensuring pricing certainty and turning your no-till efforts into no-hassle economics.

Selling your certificates
Pricing your carbon harvest income
The CO2e certificates will be issued to you on the Agreena platform, and from here you can choose what you want to do with them.
Note: We can help you sell the certificates for a 15% sales fee.
For AgreenaCarbon certificate sales, market developments and supply and demand determine the payout. We search for the highest available price on behalf of our farmers. Current pricing is approximately €25-50 per certificate (per one tonne of CO2e).
The issuing fee is paid to Agreena to cover verification and issuance costs. You pay it in certificates, so you don’t have to take money out of your pocket.
This is your only upfront cost, which covers the ongoing development of the programme, as well as maintenance of the platform.
We can help you improve your profitability and resliency
Our advisors are here to help you understand how our soil carbon certification programme – AgreenaCarbon – can best meet the needs of your business. We’ll introduce you to the programme, and together we can discuss whether carbon certification is a relevant option for your farm.
