Patent ID: 11861625

Abstract:
A method for monitoring regenerative management practices in agricultural parcels includes: determining a regenerative carbon footprint value for a parcel that comprises a difference of a regenerative carbon footprint and a baseline carbon footprint, where the baseline carbon footprint is derived by calculating greenhouse gas emissions based on simulating crop growth under current management practices and the regenerative carbon footprint is derived by calculating greenhouse gas emissions based on simulating crop growth under one or more regenerative management practices; for key dates corresponding to implementation and maintenance of each of the one or more regenerative management practices, processing and evaluating remotely sensed images against corresponding crop curves to determine compliance/noncompliance indicators that correspond each of the key dates; and storing the compliance/noncompliance indicators within a parcel database, where the compliance/noncompliance indicators are employed at a final date to verify implementation and maintenance of the one or more regenerative management practices.
