No hidden fees. No gatekeeping. Just tools that work.

Equity and fairness demand it. Globally, a large number of commercial growers widely participate in digital technology, but those growing on less than 5 acres do not—with up to 97% lacking high-quality, real-time and spatially accurate data. Existing tools for soil carbon testing are expensive and complicated, which presents barriers to entry for low-resource and rural communities. Our tool overcomes these obstacles and eliminates this digital poverty trap. Data is power.

Field-tested. Community-driven. Carbon-aware.

Radicle™ is already at work in gardens, farms, and recovery zones helping people understand their soil, track regeneration and restore land with data that matters.

Urban Soil Remediation 

“We knew something was happening under the surface.” - Kara V.
In a 12-week remediation pilot using Radicle™ alongside mycorrhizal fungi, an urban plot contaminated by petroleum hydrocarbons began recovering visible biodiversity. CO₂ respiration rose week-over-week.  Sixteen species of plants returned, including 3 pioneer species.

Post-Fire Soil Recovery

“We’re watching the soil come back to life.” - Linda W.
After wildfire, a local site used biochar and Radicle™ to track microbial recovery over 12 weeks. Live CO₂ data showed measurable respiration return weeks before plants were visible.

Smallholder Growers

“My soil is telling a story.” - Steven M.
In collaboration with small farm collectives and learning centers, Radicle™ has supported peer-to-peer learning about soil health, without relying on centralized labs or expensive sensors.

Improving the soil is imperative

Carbon monitoring first and foremost helps growers create conditions for increased production.  This is why we have created a tool that provides remediation solutions for soils contaminated by petroleum, heavy metals and excess nitrogen. Ultimately, healthy soil emits fewer GHGs into the atmosphere. 

An affordable soil carbon sensor creates the opportunity to bring economic benefits directly to people in developing and rural communities.

There are 500 million smallhold farmers worldwide, who average just 3.7 acres each. By some estimates, these farms produce over 70% of the world’s food and 80% of the food for people in Asia and sub-Saharan Africa. These smallholders include 72,000 underserved and rural American farmers. As stewards of the soil, they are all key to feeding 10 billion people by 2050 and increasing carbon sequestration that reduces GHGs.

Home gardeners are important too

Agriculture contributes almost 24% to greenhouse gases, but every grower can reduce this impact. With SEED technology, the 63 million home gardeners, in the U.S. alone, could join small farmers in becoming more productive per unit of area than large commercial farms. Home gardeners and urban farmers work 296,143 acres (equal to nearly 30,000 small plot farms), and with use of our carbon sensor, these growers could sequester an additional 11 million metric tons of carbon. The climate mitigation potential of this “carbon gardening” is considerable.

SEED’s technology is in line with both UN and World Bank priorities to address climate-smart agriculture. The Radicle™ soil carbon sensor meets United Nations Sustainable Development Goals related to reducing hunger, taking climate action, reducing water waste and promoting sustainable land use.
