This is Sustainacraft Inc.'s 9th Newsletter.

In the 5th issue, we introduced the measurement methods for Carbon Credits related to Soil Organic Carbon (soil organic matter). As a specific project example, we presented a project in the savannas of Kenya that increases carbon sequestration through new grazing methods (Rotational Grazing).

As mentioned in the 5th issue, soil stores significantly more carbon than above-ground biomass, such as forests. To increase this carbon sequestration, various methods are being considered and proposed, not only grazing as mentioned above but also in agricultural fields. Verra is compiling Methodologies for carbon projects related to agricultural land and soil, working to establish reliable new Methodologies (VM0042).

In this Newsletter, we will introduce: 1) an overview of the new Agricultural Land Management Methodology (VM0042) that Verra is currently developing, and 2) additional points concerning carbon sequestration in soil.
