Carbon farming in Europe is gradually moving from the stage of regulations and concepts toward the real implementation of practices on the ground. Following the establishment of the European framework for the certification of carbon removals and carbon farming, the focus is increasingly shifting to how these mechanisms will function in practice and what value they will create for farmers. This transition marks an important shift – from policies to action. Carbon farming is emerging as a tool that connects sustainable
Carbonsafe is included in the first edition of the “Blue Book of Sustainability in Bulgaria” – an analytical and practical publication by the Bulgarian Network of the United Nations Global Compact. The publication presents sustainability as a strategic management model rather than a peripheral ESG activity. The Blue Book brings together good business practices and effective solutions from leading companies in Bulgaria that integrate sustainability into their strategy, risk management, and long-term development. The publication demonstrates how sustainability can become
Between 22 January and 19 February 2026, the European Commission conducted a public consultation on the methodologies under the Carbon Removal and Carbon Farming Certification Framework (CRCF). This marks a key step in building a unified European system that will define how carbon removals in agriculture are measured, verified, and certified. Carbonsafe has been following this process from the very beginning and actively participated in the consultation by submitting an official expert position to the European Commission. For us, regulation is
Carbon removal projects in agriculture are playing an increasingly important role in the voluntary carbon market. Alongside concepts such as monitoring, verification, and certification, the term “additionality” is being used more frequently. Although it may sound technical, additionality lies at the heart of trust in carbon credits and is among the most strictly assessed requirements by standards and independent auditors. In simple terms, additionality means that a project delivers real climate impact that would not have occurred without the project itself
2025 was a year in which Carbonsafe reaffirmed the direction it has followed from the very beginning — combining science, sustainable practices, and farmers’ trust into a unified model that is transforming Bulgarian agriculture from within. It was a year in which our work in the fields, in laboratories, and in dialogue with society demonstrated its value in a clear and compelling way. The carbon farming program continued to grow and evolve. More and more farmers joined a model that provides
We believe that sustainable business begins with responsibility — to the land, to the farmers, and to the communities we serve. For us, social responsibility is not an additional activity but a natural extension of our mission to develop regenerative and climate-resilient agriculture in Bulgaria. As creators of the first national carbon farming program, we work daily with farmers across the country to provide scientifically proven solutions, professional consulting, and access to additional income opportunities through certified carbon credits. We support
Carbon farming continues to establish itself as one of the most promising tools for sustainable soil management and climate adaptation. In 2025, the sector made steady progress, and the year ahead is expected to mark a new phase – one that is more mature, better structured, and increasingly driven by science and innovation. Experts predict that 2026 will be a year of refinement and growing trust in measurement and verification systems. More and more farmers and investors are turning to models
More and more farmers are seeking not just a way to produce, but a way to produce sustainably – so that their land remains fertile and future generations can rely on it. This is where carbon farming proves to be crucial – it not only helps in the fight against climate change but also brings life back into the soil, the fields, and the surrounding ecosystem. When we talk about yields, we rarely consider the invisible helpers – billions of microorganisms
Carbon farming is no longer just a scientific term – it is becoming a practical tool for resilience, adaptation, and additional income for farmers. To take full advantage of these opportunities, agricultural holdings need reliable, locally adapted, and easily accessible educational resources. This article presents key European and national sources, as well as the role of Carbonsafe – the first Bulgarian carbon farming program, which helps farmers move from theory to practice. Who benefits from these resources? The educational materials are aimed at
At the heart of every field lies an invisible potential – carbon. With the new season come new opportunities to turn this natural resource into reliable income. Carbonsafe provides farmers with the tools and knowledge to earn more while leaving a greener footprint. What is Carbonsafe? Carbonsafe is the first Bulgarian carbon farming program that supports farmers in applying regenerative practices based on 100% annual soil sampling and provides them with the opportunity to earn additional income through carbon credits.
