Project Planner

Overview

Downforce’s Project Planner helps you identify the best areas on your property for strategic agricultural initiatives. Whether you’re planning regenerative agriculture programmes, piloting new products like biostimulants, or setting up verified carbon projects, it analyses long-term carbon potential and historical trends to help your project succeed and deliver a strong return.


Analyse your property’s carbon performance

Track what’s working across your whole property with data-driven insight.

  • Use three-year moving averages to identify areas where your soil is storing carbon consistently

  • Automatically establish historical baselines to understand additionality over time

  • Calculate remaining carbon storage potential to prioritise areas with the greatest upside

  • Identify zones showing positive trends that indicate soil responsiveness to management

Create strategic project areas

Design targeted zones rather than risking your whole operation.

  • Create a project area by field selection, upload existing boundaries, or draw custom areas

  • Start with manageable sizes that match your risk tolerance, operational capacity and budget

  • Test approaches thoroughly in smaller areas before scaling to larger ones

Generate project data

Turn carbon data into actionable strategies.

  • Evaluate project viability using total area, historical baseline, current storage and remaining potential

  • Export data and insight to support planning and implementation decisions

  • Compare multiple project areas to prioritise your most promising opportunities

Recommendations for implementation

Design effective projects

Once you’ve identified your best areas, implement strategically.

  • Establish control areas next to treatment zones for accurate comparison

  • Document baseline conditions thoroughly before you start

  • Phase rollouts, starting with the most promising areas

  • Consider seasonal timing, equipment compatibility and monitoring requirements

Match project type to area

Different goals suit different areas of your property.

Regenerative agriculture programmes

  • Target areas with moderate carbon storage showing upward trends and remaining capacity

  • Focus on suitable operational zones for implementing new practices

Product trials and pilots

  • Choose areas with consistent baseline performance for reliable comparison

  • Ensure the area is large enough for statistically meaningful results, with similar soil conditions throughout

Carbon sequestration projects

  • Target high-capacity areas with significant remaining storage potential and positive trends

  • Convert to CO₂ equivalent using the settings icon to understand potential carbon credit values

Monitor and scale success

Track performance and expand what works.

  • Monitor carbon trends alongside yield, soil health, operational efficiency and costs

  • Scale successful practices to similar areas identified through the tool

  • Plan projects in accessible locations that represent conditions for future scaling

The Project Planner turns complex carbon data into clear strategies, helping you invest in agricultural innovation where it delivers the biggest impact and return.
