Article Reference Agro: Cristal Union and MyEasyFarm partner to launch a simplified carbon diagnosis

Cristal Union and My Easy Farm, the leading AgTech start-up in precision and low-carbon agriculture, are launching a new simplified carbon diagnostic tool adapted to field crops: "MyEasyCarbon Simplified Diagnostic" is already available free of charge to all Cristal Union's farmer-operators.

"The agro-ecological transition requires major efforts to support not only farmers but all the different players in the agricultural world. In line with its commitment to decarbonizing its activities, Cristal Union is providing its cooperators with a new collective action tool to prepare for the agro-ecological transition and meet the challenges of low-carbon agriculture," explains the establishment.

In the spring of 2023, on the eve of beet sowing, Cristal Union, in partnership with MyEasyFarm, is launching the MyEasyCarbon Simplified Diagnostic tool, adapted to beet growing, which enables all members of the cooperative to carry out a simplified carbon diagnosis of their farm and to identify potential levers for improving their carbon footprint from cristalcoop.fr, the online service platform dedicated to Cristal Union cooperators.

Taking stock of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and carbon storage in the soils of beet farms is an essential first step for Cristal Union, which aims to help its cooperators move towards low-carbon agriculture...

MyEasyCarbon, a simple and reliable tool developed by MyEasyFarm

Since 2019, MyEasyFarm has been certified Data-Agri, a label for securing agricultural data developed by the FNSEA and the Young Farmers, which guarantees its users the protection, security and non-sharing of their data.
Launched in September 2021, the MyEasyCarbon solution, for diagnosing, calculating and tracking carbon credits in field crops, is the first application to be certified with the Bas Carbone Label by Bureau Veritas.

MyEasyCarbon is an application dedicated to the food industry (farmers, cooperatives, agribusinesses) that identifies and measures the factors that reduce CO2 emissions and increase carbon storage in agricultural soils, which can eventually generate additional income for farmers in the form of carbon credits. The solution is already being used by a growing number of low-carbon project developers in France, which Cristal Union is now joining.

MyEasyCarbon Simplified Diagnostic, an adapted tool and a first step towards decarbonizing Cristal Union's upstream agricultural sector

The agronomy teams at MyEasyFarm and Cristal Union worked closely together during 2022 to develop a simplified version of MyEasyCarbon that is easily accessible to farmers.
Completely free of charge for Cristal Union cooperators, this online self-assessment tool provides access in about 20 minutes to the net carbon footprint of the farm (calculated based on greenhouse gas emissions and carbon storage in the soil) and identifies effective levers for improving its footprint.

For Cristal Union, the analysis of the simplified carbon diagnostics will make it possible to carry out an inventory of the carbon footprint of the agricultural sector in order to better assist volunteer farmers in their projects to reduce their greenhouse gas emissions or to sequester carbon in the soil of their farms. With MyEasyCarbon Simplified Diagnostic, Cristal Union is continuing on the path of decarbonization to achieve its ambitious objectives of -25% of GHG for our agricultural and industrial activities by 2030.

"For our cooperative, the challenge of agricultural decarbonization means that we must support all willing cooperators in changing their practices towards the agro-ecological transition. The availability of the simplified self-diagnosis tool MyEasyCarbon is a first major step. This will enable cooperators who so wish to undertake an agronomic progress plan towards low-carbon agricultural practices or to commit to a Low Carbon Label approach that can generate carbon credits and/or to promote their low-carbon production in the form of chain premiums," emphasized Bruno Labilloy, Agricultural Director of Cristal Union.
