Seqana raises 3.2 million euros for soil carbon MRV using satellite imagery and machine learning
bebeez.euBerlin based Seqana has closed a 3.2 million euro funding round to expand its digital MRV platform that quantifies soil health through satellite imagery and machine learning. The round was led by Pymwymic with participation from existing investors HTGF and Counteract, plus a startup loan from Landwirtschaftliche Rentenbank. Seqana's tools help agrifood companies and carbon project developers measure soil organic carbon at scale, supporting both voluntary carbon market credits and supply chain resilience. The company's technology is already used by clients including Danone, eAgronom, Klim, and Bayer across millions of hectares. Seqana co-authored Verra's VM0042 v3 methodology and Gold Standard's SOC Model Guidelines, giving its measurement approach credibility in the carbon market. The new capital will accelerate development of additional soil health indicators and carbon pool measurements. Seqana cites European Commission data showing soil degradation costs the EU an estimated 50 billion euros annually, with over 60 percent of European soils classified as unhealthy. By making soil carbon visible and verifiable, the company aims to help farmers and corporations track regenerative agriculture progress and reduce supply chain risk.
