Carbon neutrality and carbon peak are not new words, and recently I have come into contact with some information about agricultural carbon sink market transactions, and I only express a little immature opinion on what I have seen, hoping to help understand agricultural carbon sinks.
First, the background of the emergence of the agricultural carbon sink market. Since the Industrial Revolution, especially in the last 50 years. The global industrial economy is developing rapidly. The total population has reached a new high, and a series of social production and human life have accelerated the emission of more carbon dioxide into the atmosphere. Carbon dioxide is the main greenhouse gas responsible for global warming. The global climate is abnormal, the ice and snow in the North and South Poles are melting, and the life is extinct. Microbial variation and anomalies in the activity of tectonic plates in the Earth's interior play a decisive role. Controlling greenhouse gas emissions is a necessary measure that affects the fate of all mankind. From the Kyoto Protocol formulated at the third meeting of the Conference of the Parties to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) held in Tokyo, Japan in 1997 in 1997 to the landmark Paris Agreement in December 2015, the Chinese government has solemnly pledged to peak carbon emissions by 2030 at the United Nations Climate Change Conference. Achieve carbon neutrality by 2060.
The Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs, the National Development and Reform Commission, the Ministry of Ecology and Environment, the People's Bank of China, and the All-China Federation of Supply and Marketing Cooperatives jointly issued a document
Second, the two sides of the carbon sink transaction. At present, the main buyers of carbon sinks, or carbon emission rights, are industrial enterprises that emit greenhouse gases into the atmosphere. Enterprises mainly based on traditional fossil energy, such as power enterprises, non-ferrous metals, chemicals, petroleum and petrochemicals. Aviation enterprises. Building materials production enterprises. Mainly industrial production enterprises above designated size. Not enough carbon credits were purchased. It is an illegal production and operation. Sellers of carbon credits. It refers to market players that contribute to the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions. Such as wind power, hydropower, photovoltaic power generation, new energy vehicle manufacturers and other new energy production enterprises. There are also woodlands, meadows. Cultivated land and other market entities mainly engaged in land management. The farmland carbon sequestration market is a new market segment that will start trading in 2024. It has a huge amount of market reserves. Good policy support. The main feature of the large space for development. It is an important pillar of the mainland's dual carbon strategy.
Third, the entry threshold for agricultural carbon sinks. There are three conditions that need to be met for agricultural entities to obtain the trading qualifications of agricultural carbon sinks. First, agricultural entities have legal person qualifications such as business licenses. Second, the land source of agricultural entities is legal and compliant. That is, it has a land certificate or a circulation contract, a contract contract, etc. Third, the area of farmland for the development of carbon sinks should be more than 500 acres. In areas where land is scarce, village collectives or agricultural cooperatives registered by agricultural leaders are generally the leaders. The scattered land of the villagers will be transferred in a unified manner, and the joint development will be declared.
Fourth, the development process of agricultural carbon sinks. At present, the agricultural carbon sink market is still in the initial stage of development. Various rules and regulations and procedures still need to be continuously improved. The interim development process is as follows: Step 1. Register the account password of the agricultural carbon sequestration accounting system. A business license and a legal person's mobile phone number are required. Declaration form for carbon asset quantitative evaluation project. Step 2. Enter the agricultural carbon sink accounting system. Fill in the data. A business license, land certificate, or circulation contract is required. Analysis of the economic benefits of planted crops. Satellite map land extent labeling. Fill in the fertilization record and other relevant materials and wait for review. The third step is after the review is passed. Soil sampling was conducted. The testing department tests and issues corresponding reports. Approval of issuance. Step 4, trade at the stipulated time. Settlement of carbon credit revenue.
Fifth, the requirements of participants in the development of agricultural carbon sinks. The agricultural carbon sink market should be fully understood. An individual or legal entity who is familiar with the development process is acceptable. It can fully convey and explain the situation of the agricultural carbon sink market to agricultural subjects. The trading price of carbon sinks per mu cannot be determined 100%. It is expected to fluctuate around 30 yuan. Our earnings are subject to the final transaction. Our partners recruited across the country do not have to pay any fees. You only need to invest time and effort to develop the market. Our source of income: agency fees. It is the income obtained after helping agricultural entities to operate various processes. Consulting agency fees paid to us by agricultural entities. At present, the main task of our work is to help agricultural entities trace the carbon sink income of the past five years.
