A collection of farmer-facing guidelines that help to explain and illustrate some of the different terminology used by the Cool Farm Tool, as well as the organic and field management practices used to get a more accurate calculation on the carbon emissions and sequestration happening in coffee.
Based on the initial results, for every kilo of green coffee we purchase from coffee farmers replicating agroforestry systems, an average of three kilos of carbon is being sequestered in their fields.
By the end of 2021, data will be collected from 250 participating farmers and up to US$100K in carbon premiums will be paid to carbon-smart farmers; farmers who have shown, through the successful use of the Cool Farm Tool, quantified levels of carbon capture in their fields.

This project is a collaboration among organizations across the entire supply chain, from coffee farmers, importers, and roasters to scientific experts, certification organizations, and development organizations.
