Bayer is introducing several enhancements
Bayer is introducing several enhancements to its Carbon Program that provide all-new opportunities for more farmers to earn incentives for implementing regenerative agriculture practices that sequester carbon while promoting soil health.
The updates include expanded enrollment eligibility that gives more farmers access to potential new revenue streams for participating.
In addition, an extended historical performance period for fields with eligible practice changes and a new Nitrogen Management Program could increase a farmer’s per-acre payment potential, according to Leonardo Bastos, Senior Vice President of Ecosystem Services at Bayer Crop Science.
“Our mission is to improve and expand our program to create additional opportunities for even more American farmers,” Bastos said. “These enhancements provide farmers with more options, resources and benefits so that we can meet them where they are in their regenerative journey.”
The Bayer Carbon Program is part of ForGround, Bayer’s digital platform of resources and program options, designed to help U.S. farmers realize the soil health benefits of regenerative agriculture practices, including reducing tillage and planting cover crops.
Farmers who enroll eligible fields, perform their selected regenerative agriculture practices and pass practice verification, have the potential to earn an annual payment of up to $12 per acre.
If a farmer participates in the Nitrogen Management Program, that payment could be as high as $16 per acre in years when the enrolled field is planted with corn.
Plus, depending on when the selected practices were adopted, farmers could receive a one-time historical practices payment of up to $48 per acre for implementing cover crops and select reduced tillage practices beginning on or after August 1, 2019.1
