AgExpert gives farmers insight into their farm’s sustainability footprint

Aug 14, 2024

Solid. Simple. Built for the farm.

The AgExpert Sustainability Model serves as a starting point for Canadian farmers to gain a better understanding of their farm’s sustainability footprint. As simple as opting in, AgExpert Field Premium customers can easily view an estimate of their operation’s soil carbon sequestration based on the information already entered within the software.

At this time, by using the Holos™ model, AgExpert will help estimate the soil carbon sequestration for users. Features for estimating carbon dioxide, nitrous oxide and methane emissions are under development. By measuring greenhouse gas emissions and quantifying how much carbon is stored on the farm, AgExpert is working towards showing users a view of their farm’s sustainability footprint.

Let your data do the talking

Users can continue to enter their field activities in AgExpert Field throughout the year and receive estimates based on their actual farm data. The model's accuracy improves with each year of recorded activities, providing users with more precise carbon sequestration estimates over time.

Benefits
