How can I measure the carbon footprint of my production with ucrop.it
By tracing your Crop StoryTM in our platform,
we can calculate your carbon footprint with the
Cool Farm Alliance: Cool Farm Tool (CFT),
using historic data of your crops.
Do the calculation, your historic data must include:
Harvested amount
and weight of
what is sold.
The area
of your
crop land.
Fertilizers used
and form of application
Crop Protection
products used
Energy consumed
(kWh and fuel)
How you
transport your
crops: means,
weight and distance travelled
By understanding how it works, you can dimention how your actions affect
the environment. This is the first step in taking action
to reduce that impact as much as possible.
