Cotierra

Cotierra is dedicated to transforming Latin American smallholder farmers into climate champions through innovative environmental services. Specializing in carbon removal, social impact, and sustainable agriculture, Cotierra enables decentralized biochar production in the Global South at scale. This approach not only removes carbon but also significantly improves farmers' margins.

Cotierra partners with coffee and cacao traders and cooperatives, enhancing the profitability of their farmers through reduced fertilizer use and increased crop yields, all while minimizing the environmental footprint of cacao and coffee production. The company achieves this by facilitating the decentralized production of biochar, a natural soil enhancer derived from farmers' agricultural residues, using mobile, cost-effective reactors. The generated carbon removal is verified through an integrated digital control system, ensuring a scalable and transparent operation.

With its primary address in Zürich, CH, Cotierra provides net-zero committed companies with credible climate action through transparent and permanent carbon removal credits. These credits offer significant social and environmental co-benefits for rural communities in the Global South, driving both ecological and economic improvements. We invite the management team at Cotierra to create a customized and exclusive company showcase and product listing on our platform to further highlight their contributions to environmental sustainability.
