Carbon programs need supply chain data, but that doesn’t mean workflow disruption. This overview explains what’s involved for grain elevators participating in Verity’s carbon-attribute tracking.
What Data Is Needed
Verity needs basic grain-handling data that elevators already collect:
- Scale-ticket data — weight, date, origin
- Grain origination records — which farm or field the grain came from
- Delivery documentation — load tracking and receipt records
How Integration Works
Verity connects through platforms your elevator already uses — primarily Bushel. The integration is a one-time authorization that takes minutes. Once connected, data flows automatically.
There is no new hardware to install, no new software to learn, and no manual data exports required.
Time Commitment
After the initial setup (typically 15-30 minutes), participation requires essentially no ongoing time from elevator staff. The data flows in the background through your existing systems.
What Elevators Get Back
- Differentiate your grain as “carbon-program eligible” to attract premium buyers
- Strengthen relationships with ethanol-producer customers
- Position your operation for future carbon-market opportunities
- Access to your own carbon-attribute data and reporting
- No cost to participate — Verity is funded by the producer
