#MRV4SOC is an #EU project focused on monitoring, reporting and verifying #soil organic carbon & greenhouse gas balance.
About us
#MRV4SOC is a project co-funded by the European Union with a clear objective: to monitor Carbon farming through its three-pillar method of standardization, reporting and verification. MRV4SOC aims to account for changes in as many Carbon pools as possible, estimate Green House Gases (GHG) and full Carbon budgets, couple Carbon and Nitrogen cycles, quantify Soil Organic Carbon (SOC) accumulation, and assess the results of traditional management practices and Carbon farming. MRV4SOC faces important challenges: - the first one is the monitoring of SOC accumulation changes triggered by climate change and socio-economic pressures. High-quality in-situ and remote sensing data collection is crucial for an effective testing. - the second challenge is to develop a solid scientific methodology valid at different geographical scale. At the same time, MRV4SOC will guarantee that its monitoring reporting, and verification schemes are transparent, robust, and cost-effective. - the third challenge faced by MRV4SOC is to increase people’s trust in the Voluntary Carbon Market, a method to reduce and regulate the GHG emissions. MRV4SOC has 6 objectives: - measure long-term soil organic carbon accumulation in 9 EU representative land use/land cover classes. - assess how carbon farming practices drive carbon flux dynamics in the 9 classes. - evaluate the impact of climate change on soil organic carbon accumulation. develop a robust, transparent, standard, and cost-effective monitoring, reporting, and verification system to facilitate results-based payments associated with farming practices. - identify revenue opportunities to unlock results-based payments. increase stakeholders’ confidence in voluntary carbon markets. Co- Funded by the European Union under Grant Agreement N. 101112754.

🌱 Summer is almost over, so it's time for a new #MRV4SOC partner of the week: Knowledge and Innovation ! Knowledge and Innovation is the final stage of a research and training process that began more than 30 ago, involving a large group of people from various research and civic engagement organisations, and developed in dialogue with many academics from different disciplines. Now, it operates within a research tradition characterised by a strong focus on collaboration between disciplines. Discover their role in our project 👇

For #Italian speakers: 🌱 How can the effect of #CarbonFarming practices on the production and environmental aspects of cropping systems be assessed? Read more 👇
Come si può valutare l’effetto delle pratiche di Carbon Farming sugli aspetti produttivi e ambientali dei sistemi colturali? Nell’ambito del progetto Horizon MRV4SOC project Uptofarm sta effettuando dei monitoraggi in pieno campo di differenti parametri agronomici (produttività, LAI, umidità del suolo…) su una serie di azienda pilota aderenti al progetto; con questi dati i ricercatori di ERSAF Lombardia e del CREA Ricerca proveranno a trovare le migliori correlazioni con indici satellitari multi e iperspettrali, al fine di massimizzare le potenzialità delle più avanzate tecnologie per un efficace monitoraggio da remoto dei parametri colturali. Vuoi saperne di più sul progetto e sulle azioni previste? Contattaci ora! 🌾 🍅 🌽 🌾 🍅 🌽 How can the effect of Carbon Farming practices on the production and environmental aspects of cropping systems be assessed? As part of the Horizon MRV4SOC project, Uptofarm is carrying out open-field monitoring of different agronomic parameters (productivity, LAI, soil moisture...) on a series of pilot farms participating in the project; with these data, ERSAF Lombardia and CREA Ricerca researchers will try to find the best correlations with multi- and hyperspectral satellite indices, in order to maximize the potential of the most advanced technologies for effective remote monitoring of crop parameters.
