Soil Carbon Futures

When ORCaSa closed in August 2025, it left something more useful than a final report: a functioning international community, a tested set of tools, and a demonstrated appetite for structured cooperation on soil carbon. Soil Carbon Futures was built to operate that legacy, not as a follow-up project, but as a permanent service.

Three entry points define what that means in practice. Impact4Soil cuts through the noise of an oversaturated field to deliver curated, decision-ready knowledge. Harmonising MRV builds the credibility layer that soil carbon needs to function in policy, certification and market contexts. SRIA-driven collaboration keeps the field from fragmenting, turning shared research priorities into coordinated partnerships and fundable consortia.

The demand is demonstrably there. Two Impact4Soil campaigns on LinkedIn generated over 1.9 million impressions. The Latin American and Caribbean Soil Carbon Research Symposium in Rio de Janeiro drew a genuinely international crowd. The Brussels policy workshop on carbon certification brought together 65 participants in person and 100 online, and fed directly into a published policy brief.

The infrastructure is in place. If your organisation works on soil carbon, from research, funding, policy or business, membership is the most direct way to shape what comes next.
