How to choose a developer and how does AgriProve stack up?

This guide outlines key considerations for choosing a developer and highlights how AgriProve stands out in the industry.

Experience and Expertise

Key considerations:

• Track Record: Look for a developer with a proven history of registered and credited soil carbon projects.
• Technical Knowledge: Ensure they have a deep understanding of soil science, carbon markets, and the regulatory frameworks.
• Industry Recognition: Check for industry recognitions that demonstrate credibility and adherence to best practices.

How AgriProve Stacks Up:

Our team comprises of Agricultural and Environmental scientists, MBAs, Geologists, Field Technicians, GIS mapping specialists, Engineers and Software engineers, and Finance and Marketers to ensure our landholders receive informed guidance throughout the project lifecycle.

Cost and Success Fee

Key considerations:

• Transparent Pricing: Look for a developer that provides clear information about their pricing structure, including any success fees.
• Value for Money: Assess whether the developer’s services justify the costs involved.
• Financing Options: Inquire about available financing options that could assist with project costs.

How AgriProve Stacks Up:

At AgriProve, we prioritise transparency in our pricing. We offer competitive rates and a success fee structure that aligns our incentives with your project’s success. At AgriProve, we cover all ongoing costs of the project beyond the initial baseline sampling which is payable by the landholder. There is the option to pay for the baseline sampling with $AUD or with Australian Carbon Credit Units (ACCUs) generated on the project.

Technology and Products

Key Considerations:

• Innovative Solutions: Choose a developer that utilises advanced technology for monitoring and reporting.
• Customisation: Assess whether the developer requires you to use a specific agricultural philosophy, agronomist or product.
• Data Management: Ensure they provide robust data management systems for monitoring, tracking progress and results.

Roles and Responsibilities

Key Considerations:

• Clear Communication: Look for a developer that outlines roles and responsibilities clearly to avoid confusion.
• Project Management: Assess their project management capabilities to ensure timely and efficient execution.
• Support Services: Determine what support services are available throughout the project duration.
