45Z Press Conference Replay

The USDA has released updated guidance for the 45Z Clean Fuel Production Credit, including important updates to the crop Carbon Intensity (CI) calculator and rules that help bring farmers into the program.

Watch this press conference as Mitchell breaks down the announcement, explains what it means for agriculture, and outlines the next steps for farmers, grain elevators, and ethanol producers.

Built for This.

For the last 10 years, Continuum Ag has been helping farmers better understand their soil, improve profitability, and prepare for what’s next.

What started as a mission to bring better soil health data to farmers has grown into a platform helping producers measure, verify, and monetize Carbon Intensity (CI) across their operations.

From Haney soil testing and nutrient management to CI Certificates®, 45Z opportunities, and TopSoil®, we’ve remained focused on one goal:

Helping 1 million farmers improve their profitability through improved soil health.

This video looks back on where we’ve been, what we’ve learned, and why we’re more excited than ever about the future of agriculture.

Because after 10 years, we’re not slowing down.

We’re just getting started.

What is Carbon Intensity®?

Carbon Intensity® is Continuum Ag®’s suite of services that helps farmers quantify and monetize their data. This includes CI Score and CI Certification®. Our services can help you measure the carbon production footprint of a bushel of grain and estimate the value of your farming practices.
 
A CI Score is generated using the USDA sponsored FDCIC model. For example, the estimated standard CI Score for corn is 27.4 kg CO2e/mmBTU of ethanol eneragy. The lower the CI Score, the more attractive that production is for end users.

For example: the CI Score of 0.0 means the bushel is net carbon neutral. Premium payments for lower carbon grains encourage growers to implement practices that lower carbon emissions and ultimately result in lower CI Scores.
