Are you eager to bring your talents to a fast growing startup and help farmers store CO2 by transitioning towards regenerative agriculture?

Soil Capital is a mission-driven company with expertise in regenerative agriculture and low-carbon transition of agricultural systems. Operating internationally, Soil Capital’s ambition is to accompany farmers in the transition of one million hectares to more profitable and regenerative agriculture by 2025.

We have developed Europe’s first certified carbon payment programme for farmers, called Soil Capital Carbon. It allows farmers to measure and certify their carbon footprint each year, while valuing their reduced carbon emissions and/or increased soil carbon storage on the carbon markets. Agricultural and food companies use Soil Capital Carbon as a transition tool to engage their farmers in a certified low-carbon approach and build new value opportunities through the development of certified low-carbon value chains.

Soil Capital Carbon is supported by mySoilCapital, a farmer and partner portal that collects, processes and delivers data so that farmers and partners can implement better regenerative and low carbon agriculture.
