We believe agriculture is one of the few industries that can help reverse the effects of climate change and remove carbon from our atmosphere. Soil is one of Earth’s largest carbon stocks and can hold around two times as much carbon as the atmosphere1. By adopting certain sustainable farming practices, farmers can sequester carbon in the soil, improve long-term soil fertility, increase water retention, and yet still deliver higher yields.
UPL Corp provides a range of innovative and sustainable technologies supported by comprehensive education, training, and support programs. Our offerings include advanced crop protection solutions designed to optimize crop yields on existing farmland and natural products that improve water and nutrient-use efficiency.
By implementing regenerative agriculture practices such as crop rotation, no-till or reduced tillage practices, and planting cover crops, farmers can reduce soil disturbance, increase soil health, protect water and nutrient resources, and significantly enhance the soil’s carbon sequestration potential.
The Gigaton Carbon Goal is UPL Corp’s commitment to reduce CO2 and equivalent GHG emissions by 1 gigaton by 2040. This initiative supports ecosystems that help farmers participate in carbon sequestration programs. It also aims to reduce emissions within UPL and its supply chain partners by investing in, inventing, and transferring better agricultural technologies. The project also incentivizes farmers to adopt sustainable and regenerative farming practices and transparently generates carbon credits for farmers to trade with auditing partners.
The positive impact of our pilot programs in Argentina, Brazil, France, and South Africa demonstrates our progress. In Argentina, we've helped farmers measure carbon in row crops and pastures, providing support to implement sustainable soil management practices that lead to carbon sequestration. In France, we support farmers growing corn and wheat to optimize nitrogen use efficiency with our natural NPP seaweed extract products and certify carbon credits. In Brazil, we partner with EMBRAPA on the low-carbon soybean project, supporting growers to measure soil carbon content and adopt sustainable management practices.
