01
Capture
Field agents, drones and low-bandwidth USSD collect plot polygons, yields and inputs. Works offline, syncs when a signal appears.
Compliance infrastructure for export agriculture
Every kilogram, accounted for.
ESG Intelligence captures farm-level data at the source and turns it into EUDR and CBAM-ready reports, one record that every party downstream can rely on. Built in Tanzania, for Africa.

Farm gate to port
The platform
One record from the furrow to the port.
Exporters are being asked for proof they have never had to produce. We build the proof at the source, once, and let every party downstream rely on it.
02
Comply
Automated due-diligence statements and embedded-emission reports, formatted to the letter of EUDR and CBAM, generated per shipment.
03
Prove
One dependable farm-level record opens EU market access, evidences agroforestry and soil carbon, and stands up to an auditor asking where a number came from.
Coverage
Built to cover a whole chain.
One cooperative or a whole region, the record keeps the same shape: every plot geolocated, every season captured, every consignment traceable back to the farm it came from. Set a scale and an average plot size to see the shape of the job.

Starting values are illustrative; move either slider. EUDR requires a polygon for plots above four hectares and accepts a single point below that, and evidence must be kept for five years.
How it works
From a farmer's plot to a buyer's dossier, in four moves.

Standards
Built for the rules buyers actually enforce.
EU Deforestation Regulation
Operators placing coffee, cocoa, rubber, palm, soy, cattle or wood products on the EU market must prove the land was not deforested after 31 December 2020, follow the laws of the country of origin, and file a due-diligence statement before shipment.
- Polygon geolocation for plots above 4 hectares
- Due-diligence statement per consignment
- Risk assessment and mitigation record
- Five-year retention of evidence
Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism
Regulation (EU) 2023/956, as amended, puts a carbon price on goods imported into the EU based on the emissions released to produce them. The definitive phase began on 1 January 2026, and importers need embedded-emission figures they can stand behind.
- Embedded emissions per tonne of product
- Accredited third-party verification
- Annual declaration by the authorised declarant
- Data lineage traceable to the farm
Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive
The EU law requiring large companies and listed SMEs to publish a sustainability report, and the twelve European Sustainability Reporting Standards that set out what to report and how. In-scope buyers pass those data requests down the supply chain.
- ESRS E1 climate change, including Scope 3
- ESRS E4 biodiversity and ecosystems
- ESRS E3 water and marine resources
- Double materiality assessment
ISSB IFRS S2, Climate-related Disclosures
The global standard for disclosing climate risk to investors. It consolidates the TCFD recommendations in full and adds mandatory Scope 1, 2 and 3 emissions, transition plans and quantified scenario analysis.
- Scope 3 Category 1 supplier emissions
- Physical climate risk across the supply base
- Transition risk and scenario analysis
- Industry-based metrics for agriculture
ISSB IFRS S1, General Requirements
The foundation standard of the IFRS Sustainability Disclosure Standards, issued by the ISSB in June 2023. It sets the rules every company applies before layering on a topic standard such as S2.
- Governance of sustainability risk
- Strategy and business-model impact
- Risk management process
- Metrics and targets
Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures
The framework that introduced the four-pillar structure now used by IFRS S2 and ESRS E1. The Financial Stability Board disbanded the task force in October 2023 once IFRS S2 had absorbed its recommendations, and many reports still reference it through the transition.
- Governance
- Strategy
- Risk management
- Metrics and targets
GRI 13, Agriculture, Aquaculture and Fishing Sectors
The sector standard an agriculture business uses to report its environmental, social and economic impacts. When a European buyer asks whether you are GRI-ready, a GRI 13-aligned report is usually what they mean.
- 26 likely material topics for the sector
- Emissions, water and biodiversity
- Land and resource rights
- Occupational health and safety
GRI Universal Standards
The foundation of all GRI reporting: how to report, what to disclose about the organisation as a whole, and how to identify which topics actually matter. In effect since 1 January 2023.
- GRI 1, reporting principles
- GRI 2, general disclosures
- GRI 3, material topics
- Applied before any sector standard
SASB Agricultural Products Standard
The industry standard for the sustainability topics that are financially material to agriculture. Absorbed by the IFRS Foundation in 2022, it now forms the ISSB industry-based guidance supporting S1 and S2.
- Financial-materiality lens for investors
- Standardised agriculture metrics
- Greenhouse gas, water and land use
- Feeds IFRS S1 and S2 disclosure
Science Based Targets initiative, Forest, Land and Agriculture
The science-based method food, beverage, agriculture and forest-products companies use to set climate targets that include land. Issued in September 2022, it closed the gap left while target-setting ignored the land sector.
- Land-sector emissions across Scope 1, 2 and 3
- Land-use change accounting
- No-deforestation commitment
- Removals from agroforestry and soils
Partnership for Carbon Accounting Financials
The standard banks, asset managers and insurers use to measure the emissions financed by their lending and investment. A lender cannot report its agricultural loan book honestly without farm-level data.
- Business loans and project finance
- Scope 3 Category 15, Investments
- Data-quality scoring
- Portfolio decarbonisation targets
Cool Farm Tool
The most widely used farm-level greenhouse gas calculator in commodity supply chains, built on IPCC AFOLU methodology. Not a reporting framework but a calculation engine whose output the major food brands already accept.
- Carbon module, per unit of product
- Water consumption and stress
- Biodiversity and pesticide impact
- Export format buyers already ingest
Verra VM0042, Improved Agricultural Land Management
The Verified Carbon Standard methodology for crediting farmers who change practice to store more carbon in soil. Approved by the Integrity Council for Voluntary Carbon Markets in 2025, among the first agricultural methodologies recognised for integrity.
- Cover cropping and reduced tillage
- Soil organic carbon measurement
- Baseline and monitoring from platform data
- Assembled for accredited third-party validation
Verra Afforestation, Reforestation and Revegetation
The Verified Carbon Standard methodology family for projects that plant trees, regrow forest or restore degraded land, including VM0047 for ARR and VM0046 for improved forest management.
- Tree and biomass measurement
- Additionality and baseline setting
- Permanence and leakage monitoring
- Assembled for accredited third-party validation
SAI Platform Farm Sustainability Assessment
The standardised self-assessment the major food brands use to benchmark farm-level sustainability. It scores out of 100 across seven dimensions, with Bronze, Silver and Gold thresholds used in sourcing decisions.
- Seven sustainability dimensions
- Completed per farm or per cooperative
- Overlaps the data EUDR already requires
- Silver a common minimum for new supply
Buyer compliance programmes
Global buyers layer their own supplier requirements on top of regulation: an independent sustainability rating, a code of conduct covering labour, health and safety and environment, and crop-specific programmes on field labour and curing fuelwood.
- Independent sustainability rating
- Code of conduct self-assessment and audit
- Agricultural labour practice evidence
- Fuelwood and forest commitments
Tanzania ESG reporting
There is no single Tanzanian ESG reporting standard. Operators navigate a patchwork of the national climate commitment, the crop boards and cooperative regulator, forestry and environmental authorities, national standards, and stock exchange listing rules.
- Nationally Determined Contribution
- Crop board and cooperative regulation
- Environmental and standards authorities
- Dar es Salaam Stock Exchange listing rules
