Product Insetting Solutions Product Insetting provides the opportunity for farmers and downstream supply chain partners, to pass their emission reductions forward, as an additional reward to the products themselves.

For example; John is an apple farmer, and through cover cropping has improved the carbon levels of the soil in his orchards.

The additional carbon credits enable him to offset all the emissions from his orchards, packing and distribution operations. Now, he can provide his retailer with carbon neutral apples and even additional insets to help reduce their emissions as well.

Carbon Friendly’s whole-of-chain product insetting solution is rooted in our Tru Neutral® Certification Standard and protocols.

Outcomes are in alignment with the SBTi FLAG reporting and reduction requirements. A holistic approach to sustainability. *View page 6 for more details on the Tru Neutral® assessment standard.

Farming Operations

Processing Facilities

Assessment type: Baseline or full GHG emissions reduction and removal assessment

Assessment type: Baseline GHG emissions assessment

Our approach to evaluating the carbon footprint of an agricultural production system spans from cradle-to-farmgate, providing a comprehensive evaluation of all emissions (Scope 1, 2, and 3). The final result, reported per unit of production or per hectare, accurately reflects the net impact of the product (crop, livestock, or entire farming operation) on the environment.

Our assessment of the carbon footprint of packhouses and processing facilities encompasses the journey from farmgate to processing facility gate or farmgate to distribution center. We evaluate all emissions (Scope 1, 2, and 3) to provide a complete picture of the net impact, reported per unit of production for this phase.

This ensures transparency and accountability in the supply chain.

Outcome: ISO-Certified Greenhouse Gas Emissions Report and Verified Asset / CropLevel Emissions Certification

Outcome: ISO-Certified Greenhouse Gas Emissions Report and Verified FacilityLevel Emissions Certification

Whole of Supply Chain Our assessment of the carbon footprint of crops or livestock products in the agricultural sector is a comprehensive cradle-to-distribution center approach that tracks emissions throughout the entire supply chain (Scope 1, 2, and 3).

The final result is a clear and accurate representation of the net impact per unit delivered at the distribution center. This accurately reflects the net impact of the product (crop, livestock, or entire farming operation) on the environment.

For instance, with meat products, our assessment starts at the

breeder farm and follows the journey through backgrounding, feedlot, abattoir, primary processing, secondary processing, and finally delivery to the distribution center or market place.

This cradle-to-market approach provides a comprehensive evaluation of all emissions in the meat value chain.

Outcome: ISO-Certified Comprehensive Supply Chain Emissions Report and Supply Chain-Level Emissions Certification, indicating the Net Emissions (including Scope 3 emissions) of the purchased product for the client
