 With a third of our soils degraded, the Rec Soil Initiative brings hope with its mission to recarbonize agricultural soils by unlocking the potential of soils to store more organic carbon. Rec Soil is the key to enhancing soil fertility, soil moisture retention, and soil biodiversity. But unsustainable practices are causing carbon loss and increased emissions. That's where Rec Soil steps in, teaming up with farmers, governments and local experts. It offers technical training and financial compensation to farmers who adopt sustainable soil management practices. Throughout the project, soil health and soil carbon are carefully monitored. The Rec Soil pilot projects spanning across 890 hectares in three countries may help mitigate up to 1,077 tons of carbon dioxide equivalent annually. If expanded globally, this could help offset one-third of greenhouse gas emissions from agricultural land, fostering more productive and sustainable agriculture.
