| Description | The European Commission has launched a four-week public consultation on proposed certification methodologies for carbon farming activities under the EU Carbon Removals and Carbon Farming (CRCF) Regulation.
The consultation aims to gather feedback from farmers, foresters, land managers, certification bodies, industry representatives and other stakeholders on the future voluntary certification framework that will support climate-friendly land management practices across the European Union.
Carbon farming activities contribute to carbon sequestration in soils and forests while delivering broader environmental benefits, including biodiversity protection, improved soil health and increased resilience to climate change. Through the forthcoming certification methodologies, farmers and foresters will be able to access result-based payments for verified climate action, creating new revenue opportunities while supporting the transition to sustainable land management.
