Implementation sites

The RECSOIL initiative is designed to support countries in adopting and scaling sustainable soil management (SSM) as a mechanism to enhance soil health and mitigate greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, while recognizing farmers for the provision of ecosystem services. The initiative operates in four- to five-year project cycles, with each cycle comprised of seven phases that provide training and a roadmap for further scaling of SSM with the completion of each phase. While RECSOIL provides harmonized methods for measuring and monitoring the impact of SSM on soil organic carbon (SOC) and other soil indicators, each country adopts a tailored approach suited to the project's ecosystem and local context.
