FOR AGRICULTURAL COOPERATIVES & LARGE FARMER GROUPS

Co-ops reduce fertilizer emissions by working with farmers, and turn adoption into credible, buyer-ready results.

You need to reduce emissions without creating friction in your supply chain.

Farmers need flexibility, practical solutions, and clear incentives to adopt low-emission inputs. Buyers, meanwhile, are asking for measurable progress they can trust and report. Moving too fast risks farmer pushback; moving too slowly risks losing credibility with customers

Agrifirm Plant-Based Solutions and Proba are jointly working on a project cutting fertilizer-related crop emissions across arable supply chains. Farmers adopt low-carbon and controlled-release fertilizers plus nitrogen stabilizers; Proba quantifies the impact and issues third-party-certified emission-reduction units aligned with SBTi FLAG and the GHG Protocol. Food companies sourcing from these chains can claim the verified reductions in Scope 3 reporting.

Webinar: Gain control of Scope 3:
building resilient low-carbon crop supply chains.

Do you experience friction with...

We support agricultural cooperatives in engaging farmers around proven fertilizer strategies, while quantifying and certifying the resulting emissions reductions. The result is a credible, flexible program that delivers impact today and can scale or evolve as farmer participation grows and buyer requirements change over time.

Proving real emission reductions

You’re asked to report progress on emissions, but Scope 3 data is fragmented, hard to verify, and often questioned.

Proba:

Measures and certifies verified on-farm emissions reductions, turning practice changes into credible, reportable results aligned with recognised standards.

Getting sustainable practices adopted at scale

Low-emission inputs and practices exist, but uptake is slow. Farmers carry the risk, incentives are weak, wide adoption is complex.

Proba:

Creates financial value for in-chain emissions reductions, enabling shared investment and faster farmer adoption.

Maintaining credibility with buyers and regulators

Buyers, regulators, and auditors expect evidence. Unsupported claims expose you to reputational and commercial risk.

Proba:

Provides independently verified impact units grounded in robust methodology, supporting defensible claims.

Do you know where fertilizer emissions come from on your farms?

Fertilizer is often the single largest source of crop emissions.
