Analysis

The ACR-230 rice management project in Arkansas and Mississippi has a well-confirmed additionality assessment and a defensible permanence argument based on flow-based methane avoidance, but is undermined by a significant under-delivery of verified reductions relative to the ex-ante estimate, a 70% downward revision of the PDD lifetime figure, and 17 material findings (including two non-conformities) that required corrective action. The project's claim safety is further weakened by a contradiction in how leakage was treated across documents.

Evidence

Eligibility & market

What can you claim with this credit?

Four checks buyers ask about, from the registry and the Integrity Council (ICVCM).

  • Airlines (CORSIA)

    No CORSIA label on the registry

    Not usable for airlines' CORSIA obligations.

    Source: registry label

  • Integrity label (ICVCM CCP)

    No ICVCM information

    No CCP label and no ICVCM decision found for this project's methodology.

  • Removal or reduction

    Carbon removal

    Takes CO₂ out of the atmosphere — the only type that can neutralise residual emissions in an SBTi net-zero claim.

    Source: project sector

  • Paris Agreement (Article 6)

    No Article 6 authorization

    No corresponding adjustment: the host country can also count this reduction towards its own target.

    Source: registry label

Information only, from public sources. Claim rules (CORSIA, SBTi, EU rules on green claims) change: check them before making a public claim. Since 27 September 2026, EU consumer rules do not allow “climate neutral” product claims based on offsets.
