GSK signs eight-year carbon credit deal for Indian regenerative agriculture
GSK has agreed an eight-year carbon credit purchase deal, structured by Earthly, to support Varaha's regenerative agriculture project in India. The initiative aims to expand sustainable land management across over 50,000 hectares in northern India, generating carbon emission reductions and removals. The project will help farmers adopt practices like crop residue soil incorporation and reduced tillage, addressing seasonal crop residue burning in Punjab and Haryana. Future credit issuances are expected to align with ICVCM Core Carbon Principles as the project upgrades its Verra certification to VM0042 v2.2.
