Microsoft has signed a 12-year deal with Agoro Carbon to purchase 2.6 million verified soil carbon removal credits, one of the largest agricultural carbon removal agreements to date. Generated from regenerative farming practices across the U.S., these credits—verified under Verra standards—will help Microsoft meet its goal of becoming carbon negative by 2030. The partnership also supports farmers with payments, technical guidance, and tools to adopt practices such as cover cropping, rotational grazing, and reduced tillage, enhancing soil health, biodiversity, and drought resilience while storing COâ‚‚ long-term. Valued for its scientific rigor and transparency, the deal strengthens trust in soil carbon as a credible climate solution.
