We are committed to supporting farmers and organisations across the agri-food sector to produce food and other products within climate and nature-positive systems.
In each project, we take time to understand your needs and priorities, so we can tailor our services accordingly.
Services for Farmers and Growers
- Provision of farm carbon footprinting support – We offer a range of support to farmers and growers to assist with business baselining and ongoing monitoring.
- Transition roadmap provision – Following the production of a farm carbon footprint, we support businesses to develop their own roadmap, setting targets in line with business objectives.
- Roadmap implementation – Practical ongoing support to implement transition roadmaps.
- Soil management – We provide services focussing on soil health improvement and SFI monitoring.
- Nutrient management planning – Services and advice to optimise nutrient management, with SFI monitoring capability.
Services for Estates and Landscape Scale Projects
- Estimation of carbon stocks and soil health – Establishment of baseline carbon stocks and soil health assessment
- Carbon assessments – Assessment of carbon footprint at multiple levels (by product, enterprise, farm or at landscape scale)
- Carbon reporting – including actionable recommendations to support emissions reduction and enhanced carbon sequestration
- Transition roadmap preparation – aggregate individual reports at estate or landscape scale to assist with transition roadmap preparation that balances stakeholder aspirations
- Supporting the transition to net zero – Practical, ongoing support, including with accessing carbon and nature-based voluntary markets

Education and Training
- BASIS – We developed and now deliver the BASIS course on Agricultural Greenhouse Gases, Carbon, and Climate Change Mitigation. Learn more.
- Bespoke training for farmers and growers – Online and face-to-face options are available
- Development of modules for higher-learning institutions – on greenhouse gas accounting and transition road maps to net zero across land-based sectors
Farm Carbon Calculator Services
We are proud of our Farm Carbon Calculator software, which was initially designed to produce whole farm carbon footprints, estimating both emissions and carbon sequestration. We believe it is now at the cutting edge of the science for agricultural greenhouse gas accounting, aligned with GHG Protocol, SBTi FLAG and draft LSRG. Learn more about our Calculator Services.
Testimonials
- “A totally absorbing insight into what makes a farm carbon footprint; managing and making the most of it. Learned a lot. Thank you for such a thorough presentation.”
Margaret Wright, Cobden Farm - “Our collaboration with FCT has enabled the pivotal development of an end-to-end supply chain footprint, providing greater insight into our emissions from our farms through to our customers. FCT’s continued support has been fundamental to our achievements in our net zero journey to date”
Melissa Goodman, Burgess Farms - “Farm Carbon Toolkit really is organising the best, most worthwhile, information-rich, non-vested interest farmer meetings these days. Carry on the good work!”
Benjamin Mead, Pengreep Farm - “I’m already hooked! Two modules into the Principles of Carbon and Net Zero and I’m already learning so much. Super course!”
Andy Lister - “Most farmers who won’t go to any events are taking time to turn up to the free events to see what is going on, and listen. They realise they have to look at things differently”
