Swissx has introduced its SoilBooster program in Antigua, coinciding with a significant expansion in the global soil carbon market led by Boomitra. With this initiative, farmers can improve soil health, capture carbon, and gain access to new income streams through verifiable carbon credits.

Swissx Launches SoilBooster Initiative in Antigua Amidst Soil Carbon Market Expansion
Swissx's new SoilBooster program aligns with the rapid growth of the global soil carbon market, offering Caribbean farmers a profitable avenue for climate responsibility.
Swissx’s SoilBooster Sampling Drive in Antigua marks a pivotal moment in the evolving landscape of the soil carbon market. Following recently announced initiatives by Boomitra, a carbon credit developer honored with the Earthshot Prize, this program is strategically timed as the global demand for soil carbon credits gains momentum. Boomitra's expansion into Costa Rica aims to convert 250,000 acres into regenerative agriculture, with plans to scale up to one million acres, building on its successful pilot in India, which awarded over 47,000 verified carbon credits to smallholder farmers.
Swissx's SoilBooster program stands out by offering a low-cost, low-barrier entry for Caribbean farmers to engage in this lucrative opportunity. By collecting three sequential soil samples—before, during, and after applying SoilBooster—farmers will have their soil analyzed at the Swissx Island Lab in St. John's Harbor. These tests evaluate carbon content, microbial activity, and nutrient density, providing crucial data to demonstrate soil carbon storage enhancements and facilitate earning verified carbon credits from international markets.
The timing for Swissx's initiative couldn’t be better, as corporations increasingly seek carbon offsets that provide genuine environmental benefits. With organizations like Boomitra and Indigo Ag issuing credits at scale, Swissx’s model resonates with global standards, offering a feasible pathway for local farmers to contribute to climate change mitigation while enhancing their land's productivity.
Participating in the SoilBooster program offers tangible benefits for farmers in Antigua and throughout the Caribbean. This program not only improves agricultural output and soil health but also creates a new financial avenue linked to global climate finance initiatives. For farmers facing the uncertainties of climate change and economic instability, this opportunity could transform their operations and livelihoods.
Swissx, already recognized for innovations spanning wellness, media, and blockchain, is now channeling its disruptive vision into agriculture. The SoilBooster initiative empowers local growers to profit from sustainable practices while positioning the Caribbean region prominently within the growing carbon economy.
