We at Yara are part of a global network, collaborating to profitably and responsibly solve some of the world's key challenges - resource scarcity, food insecurity and environmental change.

About the Unit

As part of the global transformation of food production towards more transparency and sustainability, Yara has set carbon optimization and climate action as key strategic priorities. Optimizing how cropland is managed will make a substantial contribution to environmental sustainability and lowering global agriculture greenhouse gas emissions. From carbon sequestration to avoidance or reduction in farm level emissions, Yara is launching a new business venture centred around farm sustainability and the decarbonization of the food chain.

The Agoro Carbon Alliance will address agriculture’s global greenhouse gas emissions and turn the farm level carbon reduction potential into a sustainable growth business, help to optimise farm operations, and provide new income streams to farmers worldwide. Our passion lies in collaborating with industry partners building a global carbon alliance to help farmers reduce their environmental footprint at scale. As one of the early movers in this market, we are using our knowledge on carbon practices, our global presence, our digital and data capabilities and our strong relationships with the food value chain to pioneer an industry shaping business.
