Improved livelihoods, biodiversity restoration, sustainable ranching

Verified carbon projects sit alongside reduction. They do not make a venue or event carbon neutral or net zero.

What the project does.

This impactful venture is revitalizing degraded grasslands across Argentina and Paraguay through regenerative ranching practices. Participating ranchers implement improved grazing techniques that enhance soil organic carbon, restore native grasslands, and improve drought resilience, while securing new revenue streams from verified carbon credits.

Spanning over 30,000 hectares, the project delivers direct economic benefits to local ranchers, with Boomitra’s benefit-sharing program returning most carbon revenues to land stewards. As a grouped project under the Verified Carbon Standard, it is structured for growth, with expansion into Brazil and Uruguay expected to bring total coverage to over 300,000 hectares by 2026.

The initiative not only strengthens climate resilience but also fosters a new model of sustainable agriculture that benefits ecosystems and communities alike.
