Demonstration of a scalable nutrient management project to reduce nitrous oxide emissions and generate voluntary or compliance carbon credits

The purpose of this project is to build on its strong relationships with United Suppliers, the Almond Board of California and farmer networks to create a large scale pilot generating the first aggregated nutrient management greenhouse gas credit project. This project will demonstrate how growers implementing enhanced nitrogen management processes on annual and perennial crops can participate in carbon markets. It sets the stage for significant reductions in nitrogen fertilizer pollution – a win for the environment and for growers’ bottom lines.
