FARMERS CAN PROFIT FROM CARBON CREDITS

Carbon CreditCarbon credits can provide farmers a line of revenue while also improving crop yield and quality. Since the discovery of climate change, scientists have talked a lot about Carbon Credits. Carbon Credits, Carbon Offsets, and Carbon Footprint are becoming a matter of concern to many farmers.

Ask any farmer and he will say that monitoring carbon emissions is increasing in importance. Fewer than allowed and the Farmer can sell those carbon credits. Carbon in the soil vs. the atmosphere is a very good thing.

THE NEAR FUTURE OF CARBON CREDITS

When speaking to an Executive for one of the largest ethanol producing companies in the USA, Biofeed was told, “The day is coming that a farmer will be able to cash in on his Carbon Credits and I see that day coming very soon”.

FIX” CO2 INTO THE SOIL

There are ways to “FIX” CO2 into the soil and the future of farming is looking brighter as a result. A farmer can produce a crop and instead of contributing to atmospheric CO2, the farmer can reduce it because of the enhanced rate of fixation of CO2 into the soil. Also, farmers do not have to worry about losing applied nitrogen to leaching because of the conversion of nitrogen into the soil. Converted nitrogen adds to the fertility of the soil and the farmer can reap the benefits.

These benefits are more evident in No-till to Low-till farming practices, but they are also evident in soils using tillage. Either way, the fixation of CO2 and nitrate conversion are bio-chemically stimulated, and this process occurs faster than the rate of decomposition of either. It seems that during the process of tilling, the soil does tend to release CO2 to the atmosphere.

BIOFEED® PRODUCTS SUPPORT CARBON SEQUESTRATION

Acti-Cell Technology ACTBiofeed® products with Acti-Cell Technology (ACT) enhances natural carbon absorption from the air into the soil, by energizing the soil organisms and plant cells to naturally “fix” CO2 right from the air, the same way that soil and plants have been grabbing CO2 or Carbon Dioxide since the beginning, since Creation of Our Earth.
Biofeed® products are formulated to stimulate the uptake of carbon dioxide (CO2) within plants and soils via natural fixation of carbon and the conversion of nitrates into organic forms of nitrogen. Biofeed® products support nature’s existing design for carbon and nitrate management.
