Agrecalc

Agrecalc is a carbon reporting tool developed by combining the on-farm practical expertise of SAC Consulting with world-class agricultural science and research of SRUC. What started as a small tool to help calculate the carbon footprint of imported lamb in 2007, grew into a fully-fledged Software as a Service. Agrecalc is a precise instrument that offers both breadth and depth of on-farm and through-the-supply-chain calculations of carbon footprint. Agrecalc went online for farmers to use in 2014, and it has since been collating farm benchmark data from thousands of farms. The carbon reporting tool has been used as the designated software to deliver carbon audits under the Scottish Farm Advisory Service (FAS) (2016), the Beef Efficiency Scheme (BES) (2016), the Scottish Farm Business Survey (2018) in Scotland, as well as several government programmes in Northern Ireland and Wales since 2020.
