WHY SOIL HEALTH
By supporting livestock farmers via ruumi, you offset your greenhouse gas emissions and accelerate the restoration of soil health, enabling land to store up to eight times more carbon.
WHAT RUUMI DOES
We connect you with the highest standard soil carbon projects
Additional
Every ton you offset is new carbon, achieved through a combination of transparent actions.
Permanent
We only work with farmers whose land is ideally suited to grazing – ensuring as far as we can that newly sequestered carbon will remain stored.
Reliable
ruumi is registered with the Verra VCS Verified Carbon Standard as a carbon project developer. We issue carbon credits with a degree of accountability and transparency at a scale never seen before in carbon farming.
Local
Wherever possible, we also try to match offsetters with local farms. In our experience, the most inspiring projects are the ones which accelerate real change – and bring tangible benefits to local communities.
Our MRV software allows you to follow farmer progress in real time
We monitor progress via satellite. Farmers report daily via our bespoke free-to-use app. We verify our data according to the Verra Verified Carbon Standard. And we make all this information available to you in real-time via our open Registry.

1
We baseline the farm
We take soil samples and create a baseline data set of soil health
2
We create a soil improvement plan
Together with the farmer, we define a soil improvement plan and use satellite data and soil sampling to verify the changes
3
We connect farmers with sponsorship to incentivise the transition
Farmers are incentivised to make — and maintain — the changes

What is ruumi?
ruumi enables farmers to restore and maintain soil heath on livestock pasture. This means more productive farms with reduced inputs and lower emissions. We connect sponsors who are interested in being part of this transition directly with farmers. Through ruumi, sponsors can purchase carbon credits, source from sustainable farms, and reach net zero in their supply chains.
What does ruumi provide?
ruumi provides technology, know-how, and finance to farmers to transition to sustainable practices. For sponsors, we provide insights and data to measure, report, and verify (MRV) sustainable practices. Through ruumi, you can not only offset carbon, and reach net-zero, but you can also support local farming communities.
Why does soil health matter?
Soil health is essential for productive and cost-effective farming systems. Additionally, soil is one of the largest carbon sinks on earth, second only to the oceans. By building and maintaining healthy, biodiverse soil, we can sequester and store more carbon from the atmosphere, which is important for mitigating climate change.
Is animal farming damaging to the environment?
Animal farming is often criticised for its negative impact on the environment, but it is important to recognise that not all animal farming practices are equal. “It’s not the cow, it’s the how”, goes the saying!
Sustainable livestock farming practices can sequester carbon from the atmosphere and improve soil health. Sustainable livestock farming can also promote biodiversity and protect natural habitats, help to create more resilient rural communities, increase access to healthy and sustainable food, and promote fair and equitable supply chains.
Through ruumi, sponsors can support livestock farmers who are committed to sustainable practices such as reducing chemical inputs, improving soil health, and optimising grazing patterns. By doing so, sponsors can demonstrate their commitment to sustainability and play a role in mitigating the effects of climate change.
