DATA INTEGRITY-BASED PROGRAMS
Our RAVAH|CARBON programs offer a suite of gold standard carbon reporting solutions for 45Z and Scope 3 that deliver optimal value to our farmer partner network and agribusinesses alike.
Reporting Standards
With the industry-leading ISO 9001 certified MRV solution for voluntary and regulatory carbon programming, RAVAH|CARBON upholds the highest carbon reporting standards.
Our field-level data reporting satisfies the audit requirements of agribusinesses while empowering our farmer partners to maximize the value of their sustainability practices.
our Data Integrity Program
The RAVAH|CARBON Data Integrity Program is built on a simple principle: the higher the data integrity, the higher the value. Our RAVAH|CARBON MRV solution offers five levels of data integrity.
This tiered system ensures that every buyer can match their compliance needs and budget to the appropriate level of integrity, while farmers are rewarded for deeper engagement.

Default Data
The Argonne Labs crop default CI score (GREET)
is applied to all fields registered on the RAVAH|CARBON App.
Lowest integrity, GREET Defaults, heavily discounted.
Farmer-adjusted Data
Farmers input their field data on the RAVAH|CARBON App wizard to calculate their own unverified CI Score. Self-reported, mostly discounted.
Corroborated Data
Certified Protocol Managers are assigned to farmers to collect documentation that corroborates the field data input values submitted by farmers in LEVEL 2. Supported by operational documentation, mid-value.
Verified Data
Certified Protocol Managers assist farmers to perform more intensive data collection and verification – optional ISO14064/5 audit. Verified data by Protocol Managers, near full value.
The Argonne Labs crop default CI score (GREET) is applied to all fields registered on the RAVAH|CARBON App. Lowest integrity, GREET Defaults, heavily discounted.
High Integrity Data
Increased integrity of CI data through an insurance policy resulting in High Integrity Carbon Intensity (“HICI”) Certificates (fungible assets). Insurance-backed, investment-grade, full value.
Building Integrity in Carbon Markets
The clean energy transition is entering a decisive phase. With the introduction of the 45Z Clean Fuel Production Tax Credit (USA) and the growing global demand for Scope 3 emissions reductions, agriculture and agribusinesses are no longer separate silos — they are converging into a single system of climate accountability.
The New Carbon Economy
For decades, farmers have been price takers in commodity markets. Biofuel producers, meanwhile, have been squeezed between volatile feedstock costs and regulatory uncertainty. The 45Z credit changes this dynamic: it creates a direct financial link between sustainable farming practices and biofuel producer profitability.
At the same time, corporations face mounting pressure to disclose and reduce Scope 3 emissions - the indirect emissions across their supply chains. Agriculture is one of the largest contributors, and credible, verifiable data is now a prerequisite for ESG reporting.
Carbon credits have long served as the unit of carbon trade. However, carbon credits were never designed for annual cropping activities, and their calculations are inherently flawed.
Carbon Intensity (CI) on the other hand, is far better suited for measuring the actual carbon footprint of farm operations. At the same time, the field-level CI scores are provided in units to easily offset corporate reporting. In addition, CI reporting offers traceability.

is clear
Carbon Intensity is the new currency. But like any currency, it requires trust, transparency, and fungibility. That is what RAVAH provides.
