Carbon stored in upland & lowland peat can only be measured with Sandy
Peatland is disproportionately important for both carbon emissions and food production; however, 1st generation carbon calculators have lacked a credible way of measuring it.
Sandy has been designed by the world’s leading experts using the latest evidence and trusted methods to accurately account for lowland & upland peatland carbon for the first time.

What our customers say
“Sandy is a flexible system that provides a reliable, intuitive tool to calculate our carbon footprint, and understand the gains we can make by changing farm practices. We explored alternatives but they were too focused on arable crops, rather than the types of vegetables we grow. They couldn’t capture the benefits of some of the unique changes we’ve made.”
— Hazel Smith, Head of Supplier Technical Management, Barfoots
“Rather than using generic and outdated emissions data, Trinity Agtech measure CO2 emissions more accurately - down to individual farm businesses and fields. Essential to this process, and often overlooked in the past, is being able to quantify the positive contribution that grassland carbon sequestration and increased levels of farm biodiversity make towards net carbon output.”
— Tom Perchard, Jersey Dairy farmer
“To have baseline data that you know has sufficient rigour gives you the confidence to explore options you otherwise couldn’t. Once you do, the continued revelation of amending management practice makes you realise just what’s possible.”
— Craig Livingstone, Estate Manager, Lockerley Estate.
