Analysis

The Fertile Ground project (Boomitra Carbon Farming, Indo-Gangetic Plains) is a VCS ALM project under methodology VM0042 v2.0 with a 20-year crediting period starting in 2017. However, the available evidence is extremely limited — only a PDD dated February 2022 was extracted, and nearly all critical parameters (baseline method, buffer pool, leakage treatment, ERR figures, VVB identity) are absent from the record. The project cannot be meaningfully assessed for additionality robustness, permanence, or over-crediting risk on the current evidence base.
