Carbon Farming Podcast
The Carbon Farming Podcast brings you the latest news and insights from the world of agricultural carbon.
On each episode hear from industry experts, farmers, ranchers, carbon buyers and agronomists about the carbon market and farm-based carbon credits in this ad-free podcast. Farmers and ranchers across the United States are increasingly making sustainable practice changes including: transitioning to strip/no-till, adding cover crops, managing nitrogen, and pasture and rangeland management. Now, with the addition of carbon credit, these practices also provide a new revenue stream.
Listen in, we’re creating a solution that is grounded in soil.
