Helping farmers transition to zero-input, high-output farms with happy cows and thriving ecosystems.
The ruumi grazing app has been developed by farmers, software engineers, and data scientists to help overcome the challenges of implementing managed grazing. It uses a combination of satellite data, soil maps, seed-mix data, and state-of-the-art machine learning techniques to provide farmers with real-time information—and the user-friendly tools they need to manage their livestock with confidence.
By helping farmers manage their land, ruumi collects the information necessary to create carbon credits of the highest quality. This gives farmers access to a new revenue stream, which goes directly into financing the transition to more sustainable practices.
The data from ruumi’s platform combined with satellite imagery provides carbon credit buyers with unique, real-time insights into how their investment is helping create a better world. Carbon credits not only measure the increase in soil organic matter, but also consider how this increase has come to pass. Emissions from fertilizers, fuel usage, and methane emissions are taken into account, and only long-lived net improvements are certified.
ruumi was founded to help farmers transition to zero-input, high-output farms with happy cows and thriving ecosystems. Its mission is to make farmers profitable without subsidies, get companies excited about removing their greenhouse gases from the atmosphere, and reconnect consumers with the people and places that produce their food.

How the project approaches risk of reversal
The project mitigates reversal risk through contribution to a risk buffer pool.
What actions would be taken by the project developer if anticipated emissions reductions do not take place, or if carbon removal is reversed in the future?
In the event of a potential reversal or where measurement of soil organic carbon stocks indicates lower stocks than previously estimated by modeling, the project's buffer account allocation acts as a safety measure to cover the potential loss of carbon credits. The project developer will follow procedures in the most current version of the VCS Registration and Issuance Process for loss or reversal event. Following VM0042 requirements, Ruumi allocates a non-permanence buffer to a buffer pool. The amount is determined via the Verra AFOLU risk assessment tool.
What calculation methods are used to independently reproduce and verify the carbon impact of the project?
Please refer to Section 8 in the methodology document.
