Overview
Yard Stick Is A Public Benefit Corporation Focused On Soils' Role In The Climate Crisis. Soil carbon sequestration efforts to date have been significantly hampered by the complexity and cost of measuring soil organic carbon (SOC) authoritatively and affordably. Our mission is to fix that problem. By reducing the cost of high-quality SOC measurement by 90%+, we will dramatically expand the opportunities for evidence-based climate-positive agriculture and ranching practices to simultaneously improve ecosystem health, increase farmer/rancher livelihoods, restore soil health, and combat climate change.
