プロジェクト概要

The AgriCapture Rice Cultivation Project is a greenhouse gas (GHG) reduction project under the Climate Action Reserve’s Soil Enrichment Protocol. Spanning 27,000 acres of U.S. farmland, the project supports the adoption of agricultural practices aimed at decreasing net emissions of carbon dioxide, methane, and nitrous oxide (CO₂, CH₄, and N₂O), as compared to the baseline emissions from historical operations.
Emissions reduction credits were generated by cultivating rice with practices that conserve water and reduce GHG emissions with an emphasis on methane (CH₄) reduction. Methane, a product of conventional rice production, has a global warming potential (GWP) approximately 81 times more potent than CO₂, over a 20-year period.
Farms across Arkansas, Mississippi, Missouri, Texas, and Kentucky implemented practice changes to reduce emissions from agricultural production through cover-cropping, nitrogen management and irrigation changes.
Focusing on sustainable rice cultivation, the AgriCapture Rice Cultivation Project saved over 9 billion gallons of water and is directing economic benefits to rural communities to further incentivize regenerative agriculture and on-farm greenhouse gas emissions reductions. A nominal number of acres in this project cultivated crops other than rice. See buffer pool description below.
AgriCapture is the leading certifier of Climate-Friendly farming practices and a generator of high-integrity agricultural emissions reduction and removal credits. AgriCapture also provides carbon insetting services for agricultural supply chains and offers crop identity preservation services for retail partners.
