eAgronom co-founder on why Scope 3 ‘fails at the farm gate’ and what food companies still don’t understand

▤ Summary

The article explains why Scope 3 emissions programs often fail in agriculture: they are built for corporate reporting instead of farm operations. eAgronom co-founder Kristjan Luha argues that food companies need to engage farmers with clearer incentives, lower administrative burden, and better agronomic support. He says the biggest problem is not data collection alone, but implementation across complex supply chains and multi-year crop rotations. The piece also highlights a shift toward stricter European requirements for traceability, verification, farmer consent, and double-counting protection. eAgronom positions its platform as the bridge between corporate sustainability goals and farm-level action.
