Carbon farming is gaining momentum worldwide — as a method to combat climate change, improve soil health, and provide additional income for farmers. In Bulgaria, thanks to Carbonsafe™, this approach already has a tangible and measurable impact.
🌍 International Practices: Modeling and Scalability
In various countries, carbon farming is supported by national programs and private platforms. These systems typically rely on predictive models, simulations, and algorithms to assess carbon impact — a more affordable but also less reliable solution.
📌 Examples from around the world:
• An initiative to increase soil carbon by 0.4% annually, launched at an international climate forum.
• A state fund that incentivizes farmers through regulator-approved sustainable land-use methodologies.
• Private platforms developing carbon credit markets through mathematical simulations without real soil data.
The Bulgarian Approach: Scientific Accuracy and Trust
Carbonsafe™ is the first program in Bulgaria based entirely on physical soil sampling and laboratory analysis — without the use of predictive models. Each carbon credit is measured, verified, and traceable to a specific land parcel.
🔍 Key advantages of Carbonsafe™:
• 100% real soil samples and laboratory analysis using ICP technology;
• Independent verification by international auditors (e.g., Earthood);
• Ex-post credits — based on actual results, not forecasts;
• Registration in the Balkan Carbon Credit Registry (BCCR);
• A software platform and mobile app tailored for farmers.
Bulgaria on the International Stage
In March 2025, Carbonsafe™ participated in the largest European carbon farming conference, held in Dublin. The event brought together representatives from leading corporations, farmers, and experts from various countries to discuss the key success factors in implementing carbon farming practices.
At this forum, it became clear that Carbonsafe™ not only follows globally recognized practices, but also enhances them through its distinctive standards of scientific rigor, operational efficiency, and full transparency.
📌 Key takeaways from Carbonsafe™’s participation:
• Application of technology in real farming operations;
• Direct financial benefits for farmers through carbon credits;
• A scientifically validated methodology with international verification.
Partnerships with International Business Communities
Carbonsafe™ is actively building strategic partnerships with chambers of commerce and business delegations from countries such as Greece, Taiwan, and China. The goal is to expand the market for Bulgarian carbon credits and support local farmers through global visibility and opportunities.
Carbonsafe™ demonstrates how a Bulgarian model can be more precise, more transparent, and more beneficial than global alternatives. By combining science, technology, and hands-on agricultural practices, Bulgaria is establishing itself as a leader in the sustainable agriculture sector.
