Support the Mitigation of Climate Change through Novel, Sustainable Industrial Agriculture

This Nature Based Solution (NBS) is by far the most cost effective, efficient, and sustainable way to capture Carbon and Nitrogen for the mitigation of climate change.

Industrial Agriculture

Innovation in machinery and farming methods; new markets for agriculture; and patent protection for novel, nature-based methodologies.

Evidence-Based Methods

Ag Carbon Farms and Ag Carbon Solutions are working together with a team of scientists to implement more sustainable, logical, and effective methods for capturing Earth-harming carbon dioxide and nitrates.

Agricultural Production System (APS)

APS (U.S. Patent Pending Number 63068016) is the novel methodology capturing and sequestering significant quantities of carbon and nitrates, creating new grazing land for cattle, creating new fertile soils, solving many solid waste concerns, preserving landfill space, establishing Permanent Agricultural Land (PAL), and providing significant new cash flows for farmers through sustainable industrial agriculture.

The Dry Decay Method

This methodology may also create carbon incentives. Clean, carbonaceous materials are diverted from the waste stream and turned into soil through a process called “Dry Decay.” The byproducts (i.e. sylvicultural residuals) are then buried to capture carbon. This methodology utilizes the patented Dry Decay Method (U.S. Patent Number 5558694) of producing fertile farm soils using a screening system operating on biodiesel or renewable energy.

The 10x Climate Solution

Clean, carbonaceous sylvicultural residuals are screened and separated from soils produced and are byproducts of the Agricultural Production System. These residuals are then stored as Carbon Capture Inventory (CCI) in a secure geological storage.

Method

Each tonne (i.e. metric ton) of carbon captured by this method (Agricultural Production System, Patent Pending #63068016) is equivalent to planting over 30,000 trees*.

It is estimated that one farm will be able to sequester 100 tonnes per day, which will be the equivalent of planting over 3 Million trees per day!

The Solution Earth Needs

These Nature Based Solutions (NBS) are by far the most cost-effective, efficient, and sustainable ways to capture carbon for the mitigation of climate change. They have a vastly expandable potential to absorb and secure carbon dioxide in the ground and soil locally, nationally, and globally. Fortuneately, these methodologies can be readily replicated all over the world.

Join the effort to mitigate climate change while creating permanent agricultural lands.

This process is supported by research and a white paper from the University of Maryland* and the environmental engineers at HSA Golden in Orlando, FL.

Through a progressive media campaign and education process, local and state governments will begin supporting (not opposing) new agricultural methods using carbon-rich, sylvcultural materials (formerly considered waste), specifically in the creation of Agricultural Production Systems (APS) and Permanent Agricultural Land (PAL).

The Earth’s soils contain about 2,500 gigatons of carbon—that’s more than three times the amount of carbon in the atmosphere and four times the amount stored in all living plants and animals. Currently, soils remove about 25 percent of the world’s fossil fuel emissions each year.

“Thinking about ways to increase soil carbon storage is a really important weapon in the arsenal [against climate change],” said Ben Taylor, an ecosystem ecologist and Ph.D. candidate in Columbia University’s Department of Ecology, Evolution and Environmental Biology. “The carbon in soils is greater than all the carbon in our biomass and the atmosphere combined, so even small changes in that pool are going to have really large effects for us. If we can figure out how to manage that soil carbon pool size, it could be really effective.”

Sequestering carbon in soil is a natural way of removing carbon dioxide from the atmosphere with fewer impacts on land and water, less need for energy, and lower costs. Better land management and agricultural practices could enhance the ability of soils to store carbon and help combat global warming.
