Carbon credit is a trading mechanism that allows entities such as governments, individuals, or businesses to compensate for (i.e. “offset”) their greenhouse gas emissions by supporting projects that reduce, avoid, and/or remove emissions elsewhere.

Land use, land-use change and forestry  projects focus on natural carbon sinks such as forests and soil.

Forestry-related projects focus on avoiding deforestation. They do this by protecting existing forests, restoring forests on land that was once forested, and creating forests on land that previously had no forests, typically for more than a generation. 

Soil management projects attempt to preserve or increase the amount of carbon sequestered in soil.

Modern agriculture has caused a decrease in the amount of carbon that the soil is able to hold. Farmers can promote sequestration of carbon in soils through various practices.

Role of farmers/clients:-

To conserve forestation, plantation, practice organic farming/inputs etc.

The more dense the plantation the more is carbon credit monetary value.

Carbon credit data will be monitored using satellite and soil report once every 6 months.
