Using carbon sequestration and greenhouse gas assessment tools to quantify the impact of agroforestry

Year: 2026

Type: conference-paper

Abstract: Combinations of three predictive tools for assessing carbon and/or greenhouse gas (GHG) flows in agroforestry were tested across six living sites, including a carbon sequestration (CARAT) and two greenhouse gas (Farm Carbon Toolkit and Open Farm Carbon Tracker) assessment tools. The outputs range from farm-level GHG assessments (including areas of agroforestry) in a single year to projected carbon sequestration by agroforestry over 30 years. All three tools are freely available, open for use to anyone, and can be accessed via the DigitAF
