Agricarbon

Agricarbon is a soil carbon measurement company that provides direct, audit-ready measurement of soil organic carbon stocks for farmers, landowners, carbon project developers, food and beverage companies, and public-sector bodies. Its service is designed to support regenerative agriculture, carbon accounting, and carbon credit verification by turning below-ground soil carbon into reliable data that can be used in decision-making and climate reporting. The company positions itself as a specialist in high-integrity measurement, emphasizing scientific rigor, statistical robustness, and cost-effective scalability. Agricarbon operates across the UK, Europe, and North America, with dedicated UK and US labs and field operations that support projects ranging from farm-level baselining to large multi-country programmes. Core Values Scientific integrity : Agricarbon repeatedly stresses direct measurement, accepted scientific protocols, and protocol alignment so that results are credible for carbon markets and carbon accounting. Accuracy and consistency : The company focuses on reducing variability through standardized sampling, automation, and bulk density measurement for every sample. Scalability : Agricarbon aims to make high-quality soil carbon measurement affordable enough to deploy across thousands of hectares and large international programmes.

Protocol alignment : Its methods are described as aligned with major soil carbon MRV frameworks, including Verra VM0042, the FAO-GSOC approach, and the GHG Protocol Land Sector and Removals guidance.
