Join Agrecalc at Low Carbon Agriculture Show 2025
The Agrecalc team is looking forward to welcoming you at our stand (2.844) at this year’s Low Carbon Agriculture Show, taking place on March 5 and 6, at NAEC Stoneleigh near Kenilworth.
The Version 1 of Agrecalc (app.agrecalc.com) is no longer accessible, as it has been replaced by Agrecalc Cloud. Normal service on Agrecalc Cloud has resumed from January 28, and the platform is available for paid subscribers, and for free trial. Please contact us if you want to purchase a licence for the new service at [email protected]. We’re working on enabling our users to directly purchase access to the Platform via a Shop on this site, and will update you as soon as we can. Existing users who want to complete the carbon audit for the Whole Farm Plan, please find more info on the WFP blog.
In the next five years, every food producing business in the world will have to disclose their operations’ carbon footprint.
We need to ensure food security through resource efficient food production.
Baselining greenhouse gas emissions is the crucial first step on that journey.
Agrecalc, the market-leading independent farm carbon calculator, quantifies, benchmarks, and helps reduce carbon footprint across the food supply chain, to enable transition towards a low-carbon, regenerative agriculture.
We support food producing businesses in measuring GHG emissions, and reducing them through efficient stewardship.
Launched in 2023, Agrecalc Cloud is a state-of-the-art cloud based farm carbon calculator.
Based on greenhouse gas reporting guidelines published by the IPCC for national inventories, it also incorporates more specific national figures from the UK National Greenhouse Gas Inventory.
“The sector doesn’t know its numbers.”
Prof John Gilliland, Northern Ireland farmer
Our core model is based on greenhouse gas reporting guidelines published by the IPCC for national inventories. The Agrecalc farm carbon calculator also incorporates more specific national figures from the UK National Greenhouse Gas Inventory.
Our methods are certified by PAS 2050:2011, a UK standard for the robust quantification of product carbon footprints.
Emissions (of all GHGs) are typically displayed in terms of CO2 equivalent (CO2e) as an emissions intensity (Co2e / unit of output), commonly known as carbon footprint.

Since inception in 2007, Agrecalc has produced tens of thousands carbon reports for 10,000+ farm enterprises, and collaborated with more than 180 agricultural consultants. Our farm carbon calculator is underpinned by the latest published scientific research by SRUC researchers and advisors.
Agrecalc has also been identified in “Preparing for Sustainable Farming”, track One of the Scottish Governments’ national testing programme*, as the carbon footprint calculator with recommendations supplied as part of the assessment.
In addition, Agrecalc is recognised in other emerging government programmes, like DEFRA’s Future Farm Resilience (FFR) in England, and with AHDB’s Farm Excellence Platform (FEP) across the UK.

Agrecalc broadly aligns with LCA guidelines defined by ISO 14044 and PAS 2050 standards as well as IPCC guidelines for greenhouse gas reporting for all emissions to the farm-gate. With modules that count hedges and woodland, Agrecalc can help validate your environmental credentials. This is especially significant when it comes to applying for subsidies and grants, and participating in various agricultural schemes and projects.
In addition to improving technical efficiency, profitability and cost-saving opportunities, Agrecalc can help support transition to low-carbon agriculture, essential to tackling climate change and protecting the environment.

The harmonisation of carbon calculator methodologies has taken significant steps forward with two key developments: the establishment of an Industry Fertiliser Steering Group and the progress towards an interoperable data format. These initiatives aim to enhance the precision, usability, and impact of farm carbon calculators, benefitting farmers and the agrifood sector as a whole.
Agrecalc has launched new and improved Free Trial version of Agrecalc Cloud, with enhanced security measures.
