The Sector in Three Numbers
Agrifood is biological, upstream-heavy, and still growing — which is exactly why it can be measured and financed.
16.5 Gt Agrifood CO₂e, 2023 — ~32% of global | ~22% Of net global GHG is the land sector (FLAG) | 11.4× Value-chain emissions vs direct operations |

TerraNova & Canopy
TerraNova builds a site’s emissions baseline, finds the hotspots, screens the levers against local carbon prices and incentives, and returns a financed, ranked plan. Where emissions cannot be cut, Canopy covers residuals and removals — the reduce and the balance side of net zero, in one workflow.
