Adopting low-emission fertilizer practices shouldn't be this hard. It isn't with Proba.

Proba is working with Agrifirm, to help farmers across Agrifirm's arable supply chains adopt low-carbon fertilizers, controlled-release fertilizers, and nitrogen stabilizers.
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.
Design sustainability projects
Low-emission practices exist, but turning them into a real program is hard. You need something that works agronomically, fits how your farmers actually operate, and can scale as participation grows.
Connecting with your buyers
You can generate credible reductions, but reaching the food companies and traders who value them is hard on your own. Without the right buyer connections, the premium your farmers earned stays out of reach.
Quantifying fertilizer emissions
You know practices are changing on the ground, but you can't put a number on the impact. Without credible quantification, there's nothing to certify and nothing buyers will pay for.
Low carbon crops with Agrifirm
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.
Addressing coffee's emissions by tackling fertilizers: a business case
This paper shows how cooperatives can run a scalable fertilizer project that’s easy for farmers to adopt and valuable to buyers because reductions can be quantified, verified, and used for Scope 3 reporting..png?width=2000&height=1524&name=Proba%20graphics%20(7).png "Proba graphics (7)")
Do you know where fertilizer emissions come from on your farms?
Fertilizer is often the single largest source of crop emissions.
