The Bayer Carbon Program is a simple, straightforward program for farmers to enroll in and get paid for implementing carbon-smart farming practices. These farmers are stewards of the land who have implemented sustainable agriculture practices — practices that sequester carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and store it in the soil. The majority of farmers participating in the Bayer Carbon Program live in the Midwest of the United States. They plant corn, soybeans and/or wheat in a rotation and implement regenerative agriculture practices like no-till, strip-till and/or cover crops on enrolled fields. These crops then go on to feed communities in the US and around the world. Participating farmers are rewarded financially for their carbon-storing practices and often see an improvement in soil quality on their farms as well. Learn more about Bayer Carbon Program.
