Farmer Forward Verify

An independent, third-party verification platform that documents farmer-led conservation practices down to the geolocated field.

How it works

Designed as one connected system to focus on the most powerful tools for farmer-led stewardship.

Step 1: Planning
AgBiz Logic
Farmers input planned conservation practice data and access decision-making tools for managing risk, evaluating profitability, and sustaining their operations.
Step 2: Verification platformThis platform
Farmer Forward Verify
Using their farm management plan data, farmers self-verify actual practice data, field by field, with GPS-tagged photos, dates, and acreage. Each verification is approved by Oregon State University before it becomes part of the record.
Step 3: Digital ledger
Blockchain Records
Every approved verification is written to a blockchain ledger, a digital, permanent, anonymous proof record where buyers, processors, and consumers can verify land stewardship. Each verified crop year adds to the chain, building a farmer-controlled history of stewardship.
Step 4: Verified proof, market-ready
Certificate & QR Code
Every enrolled farmer gets a certificate, practice page, and scannable QR code, which is verified proof that connects their stewardship to the buyers and consumers who value it.
