Combining no till and large biomass cover crops is proven to keep carbon in the soil and is widely regarded as crucial in Greenhouse Gas (GHG) mitigation. As we face the global challenge of reducing atmospheric carbon, the world is looking to the potential of agriculture to lead substantial improvements. Dr Keith Paustian, a Professor […]

Nuseed has developed a seed that provides maximum impact in the soil, on the land and in the air. With strategic deployment, a trusted carbon stewardship program, scalable global supply and regulatory excellence, Nuseed Carinata is accelerating the shift to net zero energy sources. By keeping carbon in the soil and using its oil as

New interactive soil mapping tools have demonstrated that Nuseed Carinata, a new cover crop feedstock, ideal for low-carbon fuel and high protein meal for animal feed, as well as improving soil health, is being grown exactly where it is needed most in Argentina. Northeast Argentina has been found to have the highest level of soil
