Our core business

Forestry carbon projects

Forestry carbon projects are Soldecom Agro Limited’s core business and climate intervention. We focus on afforestation, reforestation, sustainable forest management, and high‑integrity carbon credit generation. These projects generate revenue streams for communities, fund complementary activities, and contribute to national climate goals, such as Tanzania’s NDC and the Paris Agreement objectives.

Afforestation & reforestation Native species restoration Verifiable carbon credits

Afforestation Reforestation & Revegetation (ARR)

Restoring degraded lands with native tree species, increasing carbon sequestration and biodiversity. Community‑led planting ensures long‑term stewardship.

  • Native miombo & coastal species
  • Local nurseries & employment
  • Degraded land restoration

Sustainable forest management (SFM)

Protecting existing forests from over‑exploitation through community patrolling, reduced-impact logging, and agroforestry integration.

  • Protection & patrolling
  • Reduced-impact techniques
  • Beekeeping & non-timber products

Improved Forest Management (IFM)

Implementing improved forest management practices to enhance carbon sequestration, increase forest resilience, and generate high‑quality carbon credits.

  • Extended harvest rotations
  • Enhanced carbon stocking
  • Verified carbon standards

REDD+ Carbon Forestry Projects

Generating verified carbon credits through forest conservation and sustainable management. Revenues support forest protection, biodiversity conservation, and community-led sustainable development initiatives.

  • Verified carbon standards (VCS, CCB)
  • Biodiversity & ecosystem protection
  • Indigenous & community partnerships
Aquaculture & biogas integration
Biochar & clean energy
Community livelihood funds
Directly supports Tanzania’s NDC, Paris Agreement, and SDG 13 & 15
Complementary initiatives

Integrated climate & livelihood projects

Beyond forestry carbon, Soldecom implements a portfolio of integrated projects that reinforce ecosystem resilience, support local economies, and multiply climate benefits. Each initiative is community‑led and designed to work alongside forest protection, generating income, food security, and low‑carbon innovation.

Biogas & solar Beekeeping Aquaculture Biochar

Renewable energy

Biogas, solar, and clean energy solutions reduce fossil fuel dependence, improve energy access, and lower emissions.

  • Lower household energy costs
  • Reduced greenhouse gas emissions
  • Local entrepreneurship & maintenance

Apiary (beekeeping)

Community‑led beekeeping boosts pollination, biodiversity, and yields honey & beeswax for markets.

  • Enhances pollination & farm yields
  • Honey & beeswax commercial sales
  • Income diversification & resilience

Aquaculture

Sustainable fish farming generates local employment, protein‑rich food, and aligns with watershed protection.

  • Local employment & income
  • Enhances food security (protein)
  • Coexists with forest protection

Biochar & Biogas initiatives

Turning biomass into biochar improves soil fertility, sequesters carbon, and creates regional revenue streams.

  • Soil fertility for smallholders
  • Carbon sequestration in farmland
  • Sales to local & regional markets
Integrated with forestry carbon
Community revenue diversification
Climate-smart land management
Renewable energy, biochar, aquaculture & beekeeping – all support climate adaptation, SDGs, and NDC priorities.
