Reducing food emissions from the soil up.

We work with food companies to reduce Scope 3 FLAG emissions by supporting farmers to apply less nitrogen.

Our Process

The Hardyfield Model

A unique framework to de-risk the transition to sustainable farming.

01

Yield Protection

Farmers reducing N are covered for any short-term profitability decline via insurance and direct payments.

02

Practical Support

We don't dictate. We empower farmers with independent advice, a 24/7 helpline and a community driven to apply less N.

03

Validation

Data collection is easy and unobtrusive. We clean, validate and transparently report data on Scope 3 FLAG emissions.

The Problem

Why Nitrogen?

Nitrogen fertiliser is the heavy hitter of agricultural emissions. We focus here because the impact is measurable and massive.

273x

Climate Impact

Nitrous oxide is 273x more potent than CO2. It accounts for 22% of all UK farming emissions.

50%

Wasted Input

Nitrogen Use Efficiency (NUE) is below 50% on many farms. Half the money spent leaches away.

FLAG

Scope 3

Reducing N is one of the most effective levers for food brands to hit FLAG emission targets.
