Your food and beverage clients need your carbon data for their Scope 3. EUDR lands in December. Neither waits for a directive to name you.
Livestock methane and fertiliser N₂O are Scope 1. Electricity for irrigation and storage is Scope 2. Purchased feed, seed, pesticides and transport, that's Scope 3. Dcycle calculates all three using agriculture-specific methodologies, per farm, per crop, or at group level.
Different crops and livestock systems have fundamentally different emission profiles. Dcycle applies sector-specific emission factors and calculation methodologies, covering arable, horticulture, dairy, beef, poultry and aquaculture, so your carbon footprint reflects what you actually produce.
kgCO₂e per tonne of wheat. Per litre of milk. Per kilogram of beef. Dcycle calculates product-level carbon intensity so you can benchmark, compare practices and respond to client requests with verified data.
EUDR asks which plot the commodity came from, with geolocation and proof the land was not deforested after 31 December 2020. CAP eco-schemes ask for environmental performance per parcel. Dcycle holds every land unit you work, owned and supplier-operated, with origin and input data attached, so both requests come out of the same record.
Agricultural cooperatives and agri-business groups need consolidated environmental data across dozens or hundreds of member farms. Dcycle collects data per farm using guided templates, validates entries, and consolidates into group-level reports.
Food processors, retailers and exporters need verified environmental data from their agricultural suppliers. Dcycle generates the reports your clients need, carbon footprint per product, water usage, fertiliser management, land use data, in the format they expect.

CSRD is the headline everywhere, but after Omnibus it needs more than 1,000 employees and more than €450 million in turnover. These are the requirements that reach a farm, a cooperative or an agri-business group regardless of size.
This is the one that actually lands first, and it has no legal threshold. Your client is in scope for their own reporting, your product is in their Scope 3, so the request comes down the chain. Refusing is not really an option when the buyer is 40% of your volume.
Deforestation-free due diligence with geolocation of the plot of origin. It is the obligation with a real date closest to today for agriculture, and the evidence it needs is the same supplier and origin data your carbon footprint already collects.
Calculo, Reduzco and Compenso. Voluntary, but it is what large buyers and public tenders look up before asking you anything, because it is a public register. Registering the footprint you already calculate costs you one more step.
Obliges you to calculate your carbon footprint and publish a reduction plan. Unlike CSRD it is in force and it is Spanish, so it does not depend on a transposition that is still being debated.
Recycled content, recyclability and extended producer responsibility. The Spanish register holds 52,101 companies, far more than the sector assumed, and a lot of agri-food businesses are in it without having connected it to their footprint work.
A sustainable commuting plan per centre. It counts per centre, not per company, so a cooperative with several plants can be in scope even when the group as a whole looks small. The commuting survey you run for Scope 3 already carries most of the data.
