We know we can't solve farming's environmental challenges alone, and we wouldn't want to. Roots brings together growers, food producers and independent scientists - people who share a view that agriculture is part of the answer, not the problem, and that the way to show it is with data everyone can trust.
Working with partners who baseline and verify change on the ground, we show what farming is already doing for the environment, and what it could do next. Data first, then action, then progress you can measure.
Measure, understand and improve your farm's environmental footprint without the admin taking over. Enter your information once, get a clear picture of where you stand and what's changing year to year, and share it with whoever you choose. The data is yours, and Roots works alongside the people you already trade with - not around them.
Verifiable, farm-level information that turns sustainability from a claim into something you can stand behind. Scope 3 emissions reporting shaped for SBTi FLAG, with full traceability back to the farm. Partnerships with growers and independent science that deliver lower-carbon ingredients you can evidence, not just describe.
Get in touchWe work with universities, laboratories and independent scientists, so that everything Roots reports stands up to scrutiny.
Field data from real working farms to test and validate methods.
Collaboration on soil, carbon and biodiversity measurement.
A shared commitment to getting the science into language farmers can understand.
From farm information to evidence, action and progress.
Different parts of the supply chain ask different questions of the same farm. Buyers need one thing, processors another, lenders something else again.
Roots brings that information together, applies our methodology and turns it into reporting, evidence and practical plans shaped around what each customer actually needs.
From a single season’s information, we can support:
Farm and supplier emissions reporting using actual data rather than industry defaults.
Scope 3 reporting and customer sustainability questionnaires.
Soil, water and biodiversity indicators that show change from a defined baseline.
Evidence aligned with the SAI Farm Sustainability Assessment and Regenerating Together framework.
Field-level records that can support SFI requirements.
Sustainability reporting shaped around lender and financial partner requirements.
Benchmarking that shows how individual anonymised farms compare across a crop or supply group, as the Roots dataset grows.
Knowing where a farm is today matters. What becomes more valuable is understanding what can realistically change next.
Through our Sustainable Agricultural Strategy, Roots can turn the same information into a practical, farm-specific plan for improvement.
That can include:
A clear emissions reduction pathway, measured consistently and mapped towards future SBTi commitments.
Soil, biodiversity and water reporting, with measurable baselines and targets.
Independent agronomy to verify datasets, while allowing farmers to continue working with the advisers they already know and trust.
Year-on-year tracking using the same measures, so progress can be demonstrated rather than claimed.
Every supply chain is different. Roots can bring these services together into a bespoke package built around the information you need, the farms you work with and the outcomes you want to achieve.
