This start-up, spun off from Adapta, is developing a systemic solution with three integrated platforms – technical, financial, and digital – to help farmers and traders migrate to regenerative agriculture. Its analysis encompasses a study to quantify environmental impacts, with virtual monitoring and technical visits by experts; a study on the economic feasibility, technical barriers and risks associated with adopting the practices; and a digital certificate that enumerates environmental benefits associated with carbon, biodiversity, water, and soil-health metrics in each soybean supply chain.
Having documented these impacts, major players in agricultural markets and financial institutions will be able to attest to the use of sustainable practices, the achievement of ESG targets and synergies with the international agenda for the deployment of climate change mitigation measures. LandPrint’s methodology will assess and quantify a farm's environmental quality.
The LandPrint initiative enjoys financial support from the Startup Finance Facility for a pilot project and development of an integrated program model for regenerative agriculture and ecosystem services, as well as support from Bioflore to develop the platform and supply biodiversity technology, from Biome4All for soil analysis measurements, as well as Cargill's financial support for a pilot project with some of the company's strategic producers.
