We will pay you each year for the amount of carbon that you actually store in your soils. This means the money you receive each year will vary. When the amount of biomass remaining in soils increases as a result of changes in farming practices, carbon sequestration is high at the beginning an then slows down until a new equilibrium is reached. This means that we expect you to receive higher payments during the first years of practice implementation and then slowly less each year thereafter.
We aim to sell your carbon certificates within 3 months after they have been issued. We can’t guarantee which price the certificates will be sold for, but we are committed to ensuring you get the best price available on the market. We will conduct an annual review of the European voluntary carbon market to try and obtain a target price for your carbon certificates.
