Zusammenfassung:A system for determining regenerative carbon footprint in agricultural parcels, including: a sequestration server, having: a management processor that builds first simulation inputs that correspond to baseline management practices, and that builds second simulation inputs that correspond to regenerative management practices; a crop simulation processor, that employs the first simulation inputs to simulate crop growth for a prescribed number of growing seasons to generate first outputs, and configured to employ the second simulation inputs to simulate crop growth for the prescribed number of growing seasons to generate second outputs; and a CO2E determination processor, that employs the first outputs and the second outputs to compute baseline annual carbon dioxide emissions and regenerative annual carbon dioxide emissions, and configured to subtract the baseline annual carbon dioxide emissions from the regenerative annual carbon dioxide emissions to yield a regenerative carbon footprint for the first agricultural parcel.
