How to Use a Carbon Credit Calculator (कार्बन क्रेडिट कैलकुलेटर)
Our free **Carbon Credit Calculator** at BuyCarbonCredit.in helps Indian farmers estimate their annual earnings from carbon credit farming without any complex formulas.
Step-by-Step Guide
**Step 1: Enter Your Land Area** Input your total farmland in acres. You need at least 1 acre to qualify.
**Step 2: Select Your Crop Type** Different crops sequester different amounts of CO₂: - Paddy (Rice): 1.5–3 tons/acre/year - Wheat: 1–2 tons/acre/year - Agroforestry: 2–5 tons/acre/year
**Step 3: Choose Your Farming Practice** Sustainable practices multiply your carbon capture: - No-till farming: +30% sequestration - Organic farming: +40% sequestration - Agroforestry: +60% sequestration
**Step 4: Set the Carbon Price** Adjust the slider from ₹500 (low market) to ₹4,000 (Gold Standard) per ton.
**Step 5: Read Your Results** The calculator shows your estimated annual carbon credit tonnage and income range.
Formula Used
`Income = Land Area × Sequestration Rate × Practice Multiplier × Price per Ton`
For a 5-acre paddy farm with no-till, at ₹2,000/ton: 5 × 2.0 × 1.3 × 2000 = ₹26,000/year
