Bayer joins forces with Trinity Agtech in the UK to promote carbon reduction and data monitoring in agriculture

Recently, Bayer, a multinational agrochemical giant, has partnered with Trinity Agtech, a British technology company, to promote digital agriculture monitoring and carbon emission reduction solutions.

Under the agreement, Trinity's cloud platform "Sandy" will support Bayer's carbon initiatives in the EMEA region (EMEA) to measure and monitor greenhouse gas emissions at the farm level. Farmers and project owners can use the Sandy platform to centralize field data, establish farm natural capital accounts, and understand the carbon balance. The UK Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs (DEFRA) has rated Sandy as the best tool for measuring a farm's carbon footprint.

 Bayer's European Carbon Initiative enables farmers, food processors and retailers to meet carbon commitments and implement regenerative agriculture practices

Through the partnership, Bayer can develop customized solutions for value chain players and growers. Leverage the scientific, digital, and agronomic strengths of both parties to create a unique regenerative agriculture ecosystem that develops high-quality assets for a market that needs to commit to concrete and credible outcomes.

Bayer said that this digital cooperation is in line with its "regenerative agriculture" strategy, which aims to drive food production, farmer profitability and climate resilience through innovation, and is in line with the EU's "Green Deal". In the future, the company will actively guide the agricultural value chain to reduce emissions and reward farmers who adopt regenerative practices such as cover crops and reduced tillage.
