Turn smallholder farmers from charity receivers to proud entrepreneurs

Smallholder farmers power many carbon projects, but climate shocks put their participation and programme credibility at risk. Carbon Credit-Linked Insurance protects yields, ensures credit stability, and safeguards against reversal, non-compliance, and losses – ensuring market stability and investor confidence.

Carbon credit-linked insurance provides financial protection against weather-driven yield loss that may impact the validity and value of carbon credits, reduce farmer dropouts and reinforce the credibility of issued credits. Automatic payouts ensure faster liquidity for farmers and keep programs running smoothly.
