Outcome Estimation

An ensemble of advanced crop, carbon, and ecosystems models that quantify the impact of agricultural practices in-real-time. Some programs may require additional outcome estimation and validation processes like audit soil sampling.

Verification

CIBO verifies agricultural practices with ML/AI-driven computer vision that uses satellite imagery to provide historic and in-season management practices. CIBO ensures human-in-the-loop verification of all modeled, detected, and inferred data. Program data that is unable to be modeled or verified through computer vision may be collected via API or manually and attested by growers, their agents, and advisors.

Penalty for Temporary Break in Practice Implementation

Varies by program.
