How are Rangeland, Grassland, and No-till projects verified?
Rangeland, grassland, and no-till projects are verified through the partnership of the aggregator, verifier, and producer. The aggregator educates the producer of the Carbon Offset program and enrolls the producer’s qualifying land with CCX (Chicago Climate Exchange). The producer provides documentation that proves their ownership and land practices that capture CO2 (carbon sequestration). The verifier acts as the third party between the aggregator and the producer to ensure all of the documentation provided by the producer meets CCX guidelines. The verifier performs site visits to verify land practices and creates a report that is submitted to CCX and the aggregator that is used as a basis for issuing carbon credits.
