Climate solutions that grow with the land

Carbon, soils and circular value chains in African agriculture.

Our approach

Côte d’Ivoire Cashew Sector Carbon Program

Developed with the World Bank to build a low-carbon cashew sector.

View the programme

From cashew apple to new income

Food products, jobs and nutrition from a by-product that is usually wasted.

Circular economy

Shells to energy and biochar

Pyrolysis and carbonisation to cut methane and restore soils.
