# About Proba

Proba helps the agri-food supply chain deliver on climate commitments where it matters most, starting with fertilizer emissions.

 

We address Scope 3 emissions through practical methodologies, tools, and supply chain collaboration. Our platform transforms reductions into certified Scope 3 results that supply chain participants can use to prove progress, reward farmers, and build trusted climate claims.

## "Keep the planet liveable for future generations."

"Agriculture and food supply chains hold one of the biggest opportunities for meaningful climate action. Fertilizer use is a major driver of emissions. By addressing it, we create impact where it counts: in the systems that feed the world."

CEO, [Sijbrand Tieleman](https://www.linkedin.com/in/sijbrand/)

Founded in Amsterdam, Proba was born out of a shared belief that waiting for governments to act on climate change isn’t an option. Our team of international experts ( small in size, bold in ambition) bring together diverse backgrounds in digital innovation, sustainability and collaboration. 

As a start-up, we move fast and adapt quickly. Our focus is on delivering results, simplifying complex processes, and helping our partners succeed at every step. Decarbonization is a shared challenge. That’s why we connect partners across the supply chains, from farmer cooperatives to global brands, to share costs, create value and drive real change.

We want to make sure your impact is certified for direct and indirect emission reductions in the agri-food supply chain
