Agricultural farm (Occitanie, France)
Campagne D'Armagnac, Occitanie🇫🇷·France
60 hectares in Campagne D'Armagnac, Occitanie (France), in regenerative transition with Gaïago since 2021.
The farm
This is a 60-hectare farm in Campagne D'Armagnac, Occitanie (France). The farm joined the Gaïago carbon programme in 2021 and is certified under ISO 14064-2. Nutrigeo prebiotic deployment aims to restore soil biological activity (bacteria, fungi, soil fauna) to recover lasting natural fertility. To date, 792 tCO₂e have been measured during the first years of the programme, and a further 360 tCO₂e are estimated for the upcoming vintages, for a total credit volume of 1,152 tCO₂e.
Crops
Credits by vintage
The quantities below are credits, each worth one tonne of CO₂e. They are lower than the carbon actually stored in the soil: before issuance, 20% is withheld as a buffer and a precautionary margin covers measurement variability. A measured credit comes from the T3 sampling; an estimated credit is the programme's projection for a vintage to come. No credit has been issued for this farm yet.

Field results at year 3
The credits arising from the soil sampling at year 3, already net of the buffer and the precautionary margin. The per-hectare rate derives from them: the same credits, brought back to area and year.

This farm on the registry
A tonne of CO₂ takes this path from a European field to your CSRD report. Seven actors, a 20 percent buffer and twenty-five years of tracking anchor the permanence.
Programme
Farm recruitment, multi-year financing, vintage cohort management, ongoing agronomic support since 2014.

Yearly application
Nutrigeo prebiotic at the heart of the method, complemented by cover crops and reduced tillage. Deployed on 453 European farms. 5-year commitment with ~100 to 120 EUR/ha/year in additional carbon revenue, measured on the first 5,000-ha cohort.

MRV
FAO 2020 · Regrow dMRV
Direct soil sampling per the FAO 2020 protocol at three key moments: baseline before the programme starts, at the end of year 3, and at the end of year 5, always sampling after full years have elapsed. Complemented by continuous satellite-based dMRV via Regrow.
