  • Regenerative agriculture can enhance soil quality and increase carbon sequestration, but adoption rates vary due to financial, social, and technological barriers. Carbon finance could help to overcome these barriers.

  • There is a growing pipeline of regenerative agriculture projects under development. Some of these projects are huge, spanning thousands of individual fields across multiple jurisdictions.

  • BeZero uses remote sensing to detect and monitor agricultural practices, both in project fields and in baseline controls across the landscape. These technologies are critical for independent risk assessments in this rapidly growing sector.
