Green Carbon Inc. (Representative Director: Jun Okita, hereinafter "Green Carbon"), which develops a nature-based carbon credit generation and sales business, has collaborated with dairy farmers mainly in Hokkaido to realize the generation of 6,749 t-CO2 credits in a J-Credit generation project (hereinafter "this project") based on a change in livestock manure management methods (AG-002). This is the largest scale in Japan under this methodology.
Since completing Japan's first programmatic project registration at the end of January 2025, Green Carbon has rapidly expanded its dairy farming network, particularly in Hokkaido. While only about 149 tons of dairy-derived J-Credits had been issued over the past 10 years, this project achieved the generation of 6,749 t-CO2 at once, which is about 45 times that amount. As a model that balances decarbonization and improved profitability for primary industries, it marks a new milestone in the generation of carbon credits in the livestock sector.
