Carbon is essential to life, enabling biological systems to function. A key element in soil organic matter, soil organic carbon supports critical functions like nutrient retention and cycling, soil structure, moisture retention and infiltration. Without it, soil is simply dirt.
Loam Bio’s new class of biological products are a significant innovation for carbon sequestration in agriculture. The product is a live beneficial organism and is used as a dry powder during sowing.
CarbonBuilder represents a breakthrough in sustainable agriculture by increasing the stable fractions of carbon in soil, thereby improving soil structure, nutrient retention, and ultimately, crop yields. By increasing soil carbon and improving soil structure, CarbonBuilder contributes to improved soil function, agricultural productivity, and the mitigation of climate change.
Collaborative research between Loam and Western Sydney University in Australia showed that using CarbonBuilder can lead to carbon capture in the most stable pool of carbon.
Scientists estimate that agricultural soils could sequester over a billion additional tons of carbon from the atmosphere each year.
By pairing our CarbonBuilder technology with our groundbreaking carbon program, Loam positions farmers to capture stable carbon at scale, reduce on-farm greenhouse gas emissions, and be rewarded for their impact.
