Engagement Targets
Notes: (1) I Minor fluctuations in the number of retained growers is expected from year to year. These fluctuations may be due to year-over-year crop rotation effects or other factors beyond the control of the project. Enrolled acres represent the total number of acres on an individual farm in a specific year. The ability to report enrolled acres is based on the Fieldprint Project Standard requirement that individual growers enrolled in projects enter at least 10% of the acres managed for a specific crop. (2) Entered acres represent the actual number of enrolled acres for which data is entered in the Fieldprint Platform for analysis.
Objectives
Support farmers to plant at least 2,000 new acres of cover crops by the end of Year 1.
Measured through matching up cover crop seed receipts with farmer reported information on number of acres of cover crops planted.
Measurably reduce GHGs on change acres compared to control acres / baseline.
