Sagri Co., Ltd. Launches “SagriVision,” a Digital Decarbonization Accounting Product Supporting Farmland Carbon Traceability
~Building a Reliable MRV Foundation for SBTi-FLAG Compliance~
Sagri Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Tamba City, Hyogo; CEO: Shunsuke Tsuboi; hereafter “Sagri”), announced today the launch of “SagriVision,” a digital decarbonization accounting product supporting farmland carbon traceability.
This product serves as a digital foundation for comprehensive MRV (Measurement, Reporting, and Verification) in agricultural sector carbon accounting. By automating and simplifying complex, specialized accounting processes compliant with international standards, it significantly reduces the operational burden on companies and producers. This enables transparent, accurate, and reliable accounting activities at every stage—from data collection on the farm to audit-ready reporting at the enterprise level—even without specialized accounting knowledge.
■ Background of Development
In recent years, responding to initiatives like the SBTi (Science Based Targets initiative) FLAG guidance has become urgent, requiring the accounting of GHG (greenhouse gas) emissions and removals across entire supply chains.
The agricultural sector is not only a source of GHG emissions but also holds significant potential as a “carbon removal source” by sequestering CO2 into farmland soil. This soil carbon sequestration (increase in soil organic carbon) also enhances soil water retention and fertility, drawing attention as an “adaptation measure” that mitigates the impact of climate change-induced droughts and extreme weather on agricultural production, thereby increasing resilience.
Accurately measuring and visualizing these farmland carbon removals based on scientific evidence is essential for food and agriculture-related companies to achieve targets like SBTi-FLAG and promote decarbonized management.
However, a key challenge in agricultural and land-sector carbon accounting has been that implementing scientifically reliable MRV (Measurement and Verification) requires high levels of expertise and cost.
■ About SagriVision
Product Introduction Page: http://sagrivision.com/ (English only)
SagriVision is a digital decarbonization accounting product built to solve these complex carbon accounting challenges. It supports the specialized carbon accounting activities required to comply with the GHG Protocol’s “Land Sector and Removals Guidance (LSRG),” which is essential for achieving SBTi-FLAG targets.
This enables companies, suppliers, and farmers to confidently demonstrate measurable climate action, reduce emissions, and build traceable carbon inventories.
■ Key Features of SagriVision
- “Mobile-First” Design for Easy Farmer Participation An intuitive, mobile-friendly interface encourages seamless participation from farmers without technical barriers. It supports offline and multilingual use, allowing suppliers and field teams to smoothly collect, validate, and sync carbon data.
- Compliance with Major International Standards and Methodologies Designed to be compliant with the requirements of SBTi-FLAG and the GHG Protocol (LSRG).
- End-to-End Carbon Traceability Tracks and allocates carbon removals from individual farms to enterprise-level procurement data. This ensures full traceability and prevents double-counting.
■ Future Outlook
We will further develop this product’s digital MRV foundation, expanding its capabilities to support carbon credit generation projects, such as those represented by Verra’s Improved Agricultural Land Management (VM0042) and Digital Soil Mapping (VT0014). By establishing farmland carbon traceability, we will contribute to sustainable agriculture and environmental regeneration.
