Who We Are

Built on a farmer-first vision

Climate action should not stop at emissions. In drought-prone belts of Maharashtra, farmers already live with unseasonal rain, tired soil, rising input costs, and uncertain crop prices. Glaubark exists so those same farmers can restore the land, stay on it, and earn from the carbon their better practices lock away.

On the land

Practices that stay on the farm

Residue management, drip, organic inputs, and lighter tillage — work a farmer can adopt without leaving the crop or the village.

In the soil

Income from the carbon in the soil

When those practices cut emissions and store carbon, we build the record so the farmer can be paid for that outcome — alongside the harvest.

Through the season

Land that holds through a hard season

Better soil and water use mean the farm is less brittle when the monsoon arrives late, early, or not at all.

To the village

Climate finance that reaches the village

From FPOs and sugar factories to voluntary buyers, we carry the project cycle so smallholders are not asked to navigate a registry alone.

Our Story

How Glaubark began

Mumbai · Tata Sons

A research paper that changed direction

Glaubark began with an internship. While working at Tata Sons in Mumbai, co-founder Dhruv Sakore was writing a research paper on green finance and its role in the global energy transition. In the course of that research, he discovered carbon credits — and became deeply interested in their potential to fund climate-positive projects at scale.

Marathwada · Maharashtra

A personal connection to agrarian distress

The idea immediately connected with something personal. Dhruv comes from Marathwada — a drought-prone region of Maharashtra with some of the highest rates of farmer distress in India. Growing up in an agricultural family, he had witnessed firsthand how unseasonal rainfall, depleted soils, volatile crop prices, and limited access to modern farming knowledge erode farmer livelihoods over generations.

The Insight

Carbon credits as a farmer finance tool

This made Dhruv see carbon credits differently — not just as an environmental accounting mechanism, but as a financing tool for farmers. If farmers adopted regenerative practices that improved soil health, reduced emissions, and sequestered carbon, they should also be able to earn from the carbon credit market. Climate action and farmer welfare didn’t have to be separate goals.

London · LSE

A co-founder joins from London

Dhruv began sharing the idea with friends. One of those conversations reached Vatsal Agarwal, a friend then studying at the London School of Economics, with experience at EY. Vatsal was looking to build something meaningful and new — and saw strong potential in the vision. After several deep discussions, Vatsal came on board, and together they founded Glaubark Solutions.

Today · Pan-India

From student idea to national presence

What started as a student-led research idea has grown into a company working directly with farmers, FPOs, sugar factories, and agricultural partners across India — approaching 100,000 hectares of land under carbon project development, with 50,000+ farmers enrolled.

Dhruv Meghna Deepak Sakore holds an M.S. in Sustainability Management from Columbia University and is the author of three peer-reviewed papers. His work includes Mission Prana / Mishra Phalbag in Parbhani. In Mumbai, while working on a green-finance paper at Tata Sons, he began to see a different possibility: turning carbon credits into a meaningful income stream for farmers.

Carbon credits should not just be traded in boardrooms. They should reach the hands that grow our food.

Vatsal holds a Master’s from the London MSc Finance and has experience at EY. He was in London looking to build something that would matter at scale when Dhruv shared the Glaubark idea. He came on board to turn that conviction into operations — the systems and partnerships that connect Indian farmland to climate finance.

The climate crisis has an agricultural solution. We just need to build the infrastructure to unlock it.

Why Glaubark Exists

Farmers are on the front lines of climate change. In regions like Marathwada, drought, erratic rainfall, and soil degradation aren’t abstract risks, they’re annual realities that threaten livelihoods.

Regenerative farming practices can change this. They restore soil health, reduce emissions, improve water efficiency, and build long-term resilience. But for small and marginal farmers, accessing carbon markets remains out of reach — too complex, too documentation-heavy, and too disconnected from ground realities.

Glaubark bridges that gap.

We work directly with farmers to adopt better practices, build the monitoring and documentation infrastructure that carbon projects require, and connect verified climate impact to voluntary carbon markets. The result: climate action that generates real, additional income for the people who need it most.

Our Approach

What Makes Glaubark Different

Farmers as participants in carbon projects

Farmers as Participants,
Not Just Beneficiaries

Glaubark doesn’t develop carbon credits on behalf of farmers — it builds carbon projects with them. Farmers are active participants in the process, and direct beneficiaries of the climate finance it generates.

Field teams rooted in farming communities

Roots in
the Community

Our field teams live and work in the regions we serve, building trust with farmers through direct, ongoing relationships rather than one-off transactions.

Leadership working directly in the field with farmers

Leadership That Works
in the Field

Our founders and senior team spend real time on the ground with farmers and FPOs, not just behind a desk — decisions are shaped by what actually works on-farm.

End-to-end carbon project lifecycle management

Full Project Cycle,
End to End

From farmer onboarding and practice adoption to MRV, verification, and credit issuance, we manage every stage of the carbon project lifecycle in-house.

Regenerative practices designed for real farm economics

Practices Farmers
Can Actually Adopt

We design regenerative interventions that fit real farm economics and local conditions, so adoption is practical, not just theoretically sound.

Technology built for transparent carbon monitoring

Technology Built
for Transparency

Purpose-built monitoring and data tools give farmers, partners, and carbon buyers a transparent, audit-ready view of impact on the ground.
