Cover Cropping

Plant cover crops between main crop seasons to protect and enrich soil. Prevents erosion, adds nitrogen, and builds carbon. Leguminous covers recommended.

0.3 tCO2/acre/yr

No Stubble Burning

Stop burning crop residue after harvest. Incorporates stubble back into soil to build organic carbon. Prevents air pollution and earns carbon credits. Government support available.

0.25 tCO2/acre/yr

Biochar Application
