Icons showing the areas we measure

We believe it is crucial to look at the whole farm when measuring it's impact.

 

We measure 6 different impact areas, using 42 metrics across the farm, so that we guard against unintentional consequences of fixing one, and upsetting another area.

​

Our methodology is open source and reviewed each year by an independent science advisory group so that it is always improving.

Rather than just all the data being remotely gathered, the team actually walk the fields. It felt like the best of both worlds.
