Choosing carbon footprint software to measure and monitor GHG emissions in agriculture is not an easy task.
At Agrecalc, we are often asked: “The carbon calculator market seems very confusing; can you simplify it for us and highlight some key starting points?”
In line with our commitment to further developing our company’s mission and vision, Agrecalc has aligned to the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals.
More than two hundred people visited the stand for a chat and to see the demo of our cutting-edge platform-as-a-service, Agrecalc Cloud, making it the most successful event for Agrecalc so far.
The Agrecalc team is looking forward to welcoming you at our stand (216) at this year’s Low Carbon Agriculture Show, taking place on March 6 and 7, at NAEC Stoneleigh near Kenilworth.
Agrecalc has welcomed the DEFRA report – “Harmonisation of Carbon Accounting Tools for Agriculture – SCF0129″, as an important catalyst to improve consistency across farm carbon reporting tools.
The UK Department of the Environment, Food and Rural Affairs (DEFRA) has awarded £3.3 million in funding to a major on-farm trial and research project that seeks to eliminate the dependence of UK grassland farming on applied nitrogen fertilisers, with carbon footprints on the technology to be evaluated by Agrecalc.
We have informed our readers recently that, during the re-development of our Soil Carbon Module for Agrecalc Cloud, we have encountered inconsistencies that may have affected a limited number of users.
Although we initially planned to move to a traffic light-based system, customer feedback indicated a preference for numerical values, which will be available again in the spring 2024 upgrade.
A grazing event has put some meat on the bones of ABP’s sustainability programme PRISM 2030, by bringing together beef and lamb farmers with technical experts and the Agrecalc team on a suckler beef farm in Cheshire.
In this exclusive interview, Professor John Gilliland, OBE, speaks with Agrecalc on the ARCZero project in Northern Ireland, its journey from inception to the end of Phase one, and the lessons learned along the way.
This pioneering initiative set out to change farmers’ behaviour by empowering them with the results of measuring and benchmarking the GHG emissions of seven farms, by employing state-of-the-art forensic methods.
This allows them to simultaneously reduce emissions and build carbon stocks, showing how farmers can distinguish themselves as custodians of the nation’s carbon in the future.
