Soils for the Future Tanzania

Solutions Through Soil

The global crises of climate change, increasing poverty, and losing biodiversity require solutions. Soils for the Future Tanzania addresses problems related to soils - the source of nutrients and water for plant production in agriculture, livestock production, biodiversity conservation, and human livelihoods. A key indicator of soil health is the amount of its carbon-rich organic matter. We offer management solutions or analyses of data to help people change the way they use the land, whether through agricultural practices, grazing management, fire management, forestry or other activities, to improve soils and to achieve more carbon-rich soils.

Carbon projects manage natural landscapes to generate carbon credits, which are bought by companies that voluntarily seek to reduce their carbon footprint. Projects can involve growing trees, protecting trees, altering soil management during agriculture, and altering fire and grazing of grasslands
