The idea
Create carbon-linked incentives for regenerative farming practices.
Why this is interesting
- Regenerative practices span different crops and outcomes, so programmes need specific agronomy and farmer value rather than a single broad label.
- The source points to an existing business or approach. A new founder still needs a distinct customer, geography or workflow rather than assuming the example proves open demand.
Possible starting points
Crop-specific transition programme
Support a defined set of practices with technical help, costs and outcome records over multiple seasons.
Buyer-funded resilience contract
Connect supply-chain support to soil, water or input outcomes without depending entirely on carbon credits.
Questions to answer
- Which practices are locally appropriate and economically sustainable for farmers?
- How will permanence, changing baselines and multiple environmental claims be handled?
