Can farmers profit from storing carbon in soil?
Check out Maryland farmer Trey Hill’s story:
Earlier this year, Nori paid Hill $115,000 for just over 8,000 tons of carbon stored in Hill’s soil. In the future, if each of the 10,000 acres he farms can sock away an additional ton of carbon per year — around the best he could hope for, he says — he could earn up to $150,000 annually.
And that’s just one additional ton of carbon per year. What if you could store five tons of carbon per year with Necternal’s technology — without unproductive and/or inconvenent cover crops or the lost productivity from leaving your land fallow?
