Boomitra is dedicated to advancing inclusive, science-driven carbon projects. This comprehensive report outlines our remote sensing-based Measurement, Reporting, and Verification (MRV) methodology for our URVARA Project, validated under the Social Carbon Standard. It details our approach to accurately and cost-effectively monitor soil organic carbon (SOC) changes across diverse smallholder farming systems in India.
What's Inside
- End-to-end monitoring, reporting, and verification (MRV) process
- Detailed explanation of remote sensing principles and modeling
- SOC and bulk density calibration and validation metrics
- Full uncertainty quantification and project-level carbon accounting
- Scientific discussion on limitations and applicability
This white paper is designed for a technical audience—scientists, project developers, credit buyers, and auditors—seeking rigorous, reproducible methods for soil carbon quantification at scale, especially in smallholder systems.
Why It Matters
Smallholder farms manage 70–80% of farmland in the Global South but are often excluded from carbon finance due to the cost of traditional MRV. Boomitra’s approach solves that—cost-effectively, at scale, and with transparency.Download the Full MRV Framework Document Now
