Carbon-Negative Farming

This book examines carbon-negative farming systems addressing science, methods, and policy mechanisms for achieving net-negative greenhouse gas outcomes. It covers soil health and carbon sequestration including biochar application, enhanced rock weathering, and plant-soil interactions for carbon capture and storage, and also:

• Provides comprehensive coverage of carbon-negative farming systems addressing science, methods, and policy mechanisms that enable farms to achieve net-negative greenhouse gas outcomes through carbon sequestration and regenerative land use.

• Examines soil health and carbon sequestration as the cornerstone of carbon-negative farming including biochar application, enhanced rock weathering, and plant-soil interactions for carbon capture and storage in agricultural ecosystems.

• Discusses carbon accounting and measurement tools for monitoring greenhouse gas outcomes with emphasis on digital monitoring systems, carbon markets, and sustainable finance mechanisms for climate-positive agriculture.

• Addresses economic viability and market mechanisms for carbon-negative agriculture including policy and governance frameworks, community and indigenous knowledge systems, and replicable pathways for scaling practices across agro-ecological regions.

• Covers innovative approaches and technologies including digital and AI-based tools for carbon farming, climate-resilient crop systems, and carbon-negative livestock systems for transforming agriculture from net emitter to net sink of carbon.
