Overview
CarbonFarm combines satellite imagery, field data and greenhouse-gas modelling to measure rice-farming practices and emissions at field level. It also helps partners develop, finance and certify decarbonisation projects and connect them with corporate supply chains and carbon markets.
Why CarbonFarm is interesting
Rice methane is a large, geographically fragmented emissions source. CarbonFarm’s opportunity is not simply better monitoring: it is turning thousands of smallholder practice changes into financeable, auditable projects that buyers and regulators will trust.
Product & use cases
The platform provides digital monitoring, reporting and verification for rice projects, plus project design, financing, certification and buyer access. CarbonFarm says it operates across 19 countries.
- Rice methane MRV
- Scope 3 supply-chain projects
- Carbon-credit project development
- Water-management verification

Competitive landscape
Edge: A rice-specific combination of satellite MRV, greenhouse-gas models and project-finance services can reduce the coordination burden across fragmented agricultural supply chains.
CarbonFarm competes with broader agricultural MRV platforms, carbon-project developers and in-house sustainability programmes. Its differentiation rests on rice-specific models, field implementation partners and credibility with standards and buyers.
