Cotierra (previously Terra Preta) removes carbon and improves farmers margins by enabling decentralized biochar production in the Global South at scale.
We provide net-zero committed companies with credible climate action in the form of transparent and permanent carbon removal credits with social and environmental co-benefits for rural communities in the Global South.
We partner with coffee/cacao traders and cooperatives to improve the margins of their farmers through reduced fertilizer usage and increased crop yield while lowering the footprint of the produced cacao/coffee.
We do this by enabling the decentralized production of biochar, a natural soil enhancer made from farmers’ agricultural residues, with our mobile cost-effective reactor and the verification of the generated carbon removal with our integrated digital control system leveraged by our scalable operations model.
Carbon Removal, Social Impact, and Agriculture
Biochar made from agricultural residues in the tropics can become a gamechanger for farmers and climate change mitigation
