Farm environmental assessments
Environmental assessments provide farms with a clear and accurate picture of how their operations affect the climate, biodiversity and water resources. Envitecpolis helps farms identify both development needs and opportunities related to more sustainable production. By using reliable data, farms can develop their operations systematically and manage sustainability in a more purposeful way.
Farm carbon footprint calculation
Carbon footprint calculation provides farmers with an individual overview of their farm’s climate impact. The assessment identifies the main sources of greenhouse gas emissions and shows how they are distributed across different areas of production. The results can then be used to identify effective measures for reducing emissions.
​
The service may include:
​
-
Assessment of the current situation and carbon footprint per unit of production, such as per litre of milk, kilogram of grain or kilogram of meat
-
A written summary of the factors affecting the result and practical recommendations for improvement
-
Where required, scenario modelling to assess the impact of different development measures
Farm biodiversity assessment
Protecting biodiversity is an important part of responsible farm management. Envitecpolis’ biodiversity assessment is based on a repeatable and measurable evaluation model that helps monitor changes in biodiversity on the farm over time.
The results can support both the development of farm operations and sustainability communication by providing clear information on the farm’s biodiversity performance and progress.
Farm water footprint
Efficient and responsible water use is particularly important in areas where water resources are limited. A water footprint assessment helps farms identify the main sources of water consumption and evaluate opportunities to improve water efficiency.
​
Envitecpolis’ service includes:
​
-
Assessment of the farm’s current water footprint
-
Recommendations for improving water efficiency
-
A written report
