THE LANDSCAPE CHALLENGE

Nakhon Sawan is a major agricultural province with significant volumes of rice straw and cane residues generated annually.

A large proportion of these residues are openly burned, contributing to:

• Recurring PM2.5 air pollution

• Avoidable greenhouse gas emissions

• Soil organic matter decline

• Farmer income volatility
  
  

The province has formally recognized biomass management as a priority within its development agenda.

bioSCAPE responds at the landscape level — not as a single project, but as an integrated transition platform.

OUR SYSTEMIC RESPONSE

bioSCAPE operates through three integrated pillars:

1. Biomass Circularity

Cluster-level aggregation hubs divert agricultural residues from open burning into structured value streams.

2. Compost-Based Soil Restoration

Biomass is converted into certified organic compost, reducing synthetic fertilizer dependence and rebuilding soil organic matter.

3. Organic Farmer Transition & Market Linkage

Smallholders transition toward certified organic jasmine rice production, linked to export buyers through existing certified processors.

This sequencing enables measurable environmental improvement while stabilizing farmer income.

LANDSCAPE SNAPSHOT

Geographic Scope
4 agricultural clusters within Nakhon Sawan province

Biomass Availability
~2.7 million tons of agricultural residues annually

bioSCAPE Project Detailed for G…

Pilot Module Scale
250–500 smallholder farmer families per cluster

Climate Impact Potential
Significant reduction in open burning emissions
Measurable soil restoration outcomes

MEASURABLE IMPACT PATHWAY

bioSCAPE delivers impact through a structured causal chain:

Biomass Diversion
→ Reduced Open Burning
→ Lower CH₄ and N₂O Emissions

Compost Application
→ Reduced Synthetic Fertilizer Use
→ Improved Soil Carbon & Resilience

Organic Transition
→ Premium Market Access
→ Stabilized Farmer Income

This integrated approach enables landscape-level transformation rather than isolated intervention.

IMPLEMENTATION APPROACH

Year 1
Landscape readiness, farmer MoUs, biomass aggregation pilot, compost production launch.

Year 2
Expanded farmer enrollment, organic transition scaling, verified emission reduction tracking.

Year 3
Institutionalization of the regenerative model and structured replication.

The platform is intentionally sequenced to minimize regulatory and capital risk while building farmer trust and measurable outcomes.

GOVERNANCE & PARTNERSHIP

bioSCAPE is structured under bioSCAPE Holding BV with cluster-level SPVs and community enterprise participation (≤20%).

The initiative seeks collaboration with landscape-focused development partners, impact investors, and technical institutions to support:

• Landscape diagnostics refinement

• Farmer transition support

• Blended finance structuring

• MRV development

INVITATION

bioSCAPE is designed as a collaborative landscape initiative.

We welcome engagement with institutions aligned on:

• Regenerative agriculture

• Soil restoration

• Climate mitigation

• Smallholder inclusion

• Sustainable trade systems
