SequestradMRV · virtual carbon sink

A carbon sink built from farms already on the map

Every farm onboarded for EUDR arrives with a dated baseline and stays monitored from space. Sequestra aggregates those smallholder and medium farms into nature-based carbon programmes, and gives developers the dMRV and the evidence trail to run them.

The platform

Evidence that carries over

The same evidence trail that stands up for EUDR is what makes the monitoring usable for carbon programmes.

Independent satellite evidence

Multiple satellite sources, cross-checked over time, so no single image carries a claim.

Repeatable results

The same request returns the same value, whenever it is run, so a verifier can reproduce what we report.

Monitored from day one

Each farm is watched against its onboarding baseline, with deforestation alerts from multiple sources and human review of every flag.

Evidence trail

From observation to evidence

  1. Observe

    Satellite evidence

    Multiple independent satellite sources, farm by farm

  2. Measure

    Consistent measurement

    Carbon stock measured the same way, year after year

  3. Report

    Structured evidence

    Packaged for VM0048 and VM0047 workflows

  4. Verify

    Independent review

    Verification bodies review the record; we don't replace them

Virtual carbon sink

From onboarded farms to nature-based programmes

Farms onboarded for EUDR can be aggregated into nature-based programmes: restoration, agroforestry and protecting native vegetation. Field inventories don't pay at 10–50 hectares per farm. Satellite monitoring does.

Diagram: eight farms onboarded for EUDR, each with a dated baseline, are aggregated along flow lines into three nature-based programmes — restoration, agroforestry and native-vegetation protection — that form one virtual carbon sink monitored by Sequestra.

Smallholder programmes

Monitored by Sequestra

Built on EUDR onboarding

Each farm arrives with its plot, tenure, land-use history, stored imagery and a biomass snapshot. Its above-ground biomass at onboarding is frozen on a blockchain, so the baseline can't be changed later.

Smallholder aggregation

Small and medium farms that could never carry a standalone project are grouped into one programme, monitored farm by farm.

Income for overlooked farmers

Smallholders are usually left out of carbon finance, yet they need income most. Keeping forest standing becomes a source of revenue, not a cost, and the pressure to clear land eases.

Who it’s for

Carbon project developers, and EU importers and retailers funding programmes in their own supply chains.

We work with project developers to bring as much of this land as possible into programmes eligible for credit issuance.
