User story

Additional context

Augment the data model and UI to support any gaps in the necessary inputs for generating a HOLOS output

Build HOLOS model

As a FO / FM I want to be able to generate an estimate of my green house gas emissions (GHG) and changes in soil carbon (IC) so that I can understand the sustainability of my farm

HOLOS is primarily a Canadian research tool. The current vision is that we would code the HOLOS model into LiteFarm and that it would be the lowest barrier, back of the envelop choice for understanding on farm GHG and IC.

Augment the data model and UI to support any gaps in the necessary inputs for generating a COMET-Farm output

Integrate with COMET-Farm

Augment the data model and UI to support any gaps in the necessary inputs for generating a CFT output

Integrate with Cool Farm Tool

Things to be investigated

Question

Answer

Notes

Which of these tools should we use to estimate on farm GHG emission estimates?

Each has a geographic footprint:

  • HOLOS → Canada

  • COMET → Mostly USA

  • CFT → Mostly Europe

So the answer may be more than one.

Does it make more sense to build and maintain a Switchboard connector to integrate with COMET farm tool and Cool Farm Tool or to create direct integrations?

Additional resources

The team has performed a thorough analysis of the three leading GHG accounting tools on the market – HOLOS, COMET-Farm, and Cool Farm Tool
