About us
Boomitra works with farmers and ranchers worldwide to increase soil carbon through improved agricultural practices and generate internationally certified carbon removal credits. We use proprietary AI and satellite technology to monitor, report, and verify (MRV) soil organic carbon to a 30cm+ depth, without physical soil sampling, reducing measurement costs by 99%. The process is cost-efficient, time effective, and scalable across various landholding sizes – enabling Boomitra to work globally: 5M+ acres, 150,000+ farmers, 4 continents, millions of credits sold to date. Boomitra sells the carbon credits to corporations and governments worldwide, enabling them to meet their sustainability goals. Farmers and landowners earn the vast majority of proceeds from each carbon credit sold, allowing them to re-invest in their farms and local communities. Boomitra means “Friend of the Earth” in Sanskrit. That is who we are and hope to inspire others to be. Learn more at boomitra.com

There are cool carbon facts wherever you go. On vacation, our Director of Carbon Credits found this The Wild Center sign. We can learn a lot from it! Soil carbon hosts numerous co-benefits, including cleaning the air. Moreover, soil is a readily available carbon sink—something we can use to lock away carbon generated from hard-to-abate activities like: 🛩 flights 🌬 A/C use 💻 computer use Boomitra is unlocking soil carbon at the gigaton scale.

🌱 Precision agriculture bridges economic efficiency with environmental stewardship. 🛰 It's a crop management system that uses modern technology to guide farmers, informing them on how to maximize yields, when they are using too much fertilizer or pesticide, or when to change their farming practices. 🌧 Rather than rely on trial and error to understand their plots of land, farmers gain insight instantaneously, and across changing environmental conditions, like seasons or droughts. 👩🌾 Boomitra's agtech unlocks precision agriculture for smallholder farmers across the Global South, who would not otherwise be able to afford it. At no cost to them, the Boomitra app provides growers with insights on their soil health. Then our carbon hackers and partners advise them on next steps. 🔑 Learn more about precision agriculture from University of Missouri System: https://lnkd.in/dtbM27sf 🔗 Explore how precision ag is a gamechanger for smallholder farmers: https://lnkd.in/gRgqmpA3

🚀 Recently, a scientist discovered a lost soil sample collection going back to the 1860s. 🔬 This kind of record can teach scientists and growers how farming affects soil—for better or for worse. 🐞 Reported by Harvest Public Media, research soil scientist Mark Liebig said, “What is amazing is that we really have a very limited understanding of how soil changes over multiple generations.” 👏 Boomitra celebrates this advance in soil science, which allows farmers to implement data-driven improvements to their practices. Learn how Boomitra does this with our proprietary AI and remote sensing technology, providing farmers with key health statistics like nutrient levels and soil moisture: https://lnkd.in/gRgqmpA3 Read the full article: https://lnkd.in/g5qY9SJZ
