Ecological Outcome Verification (EOV)

Ecological Outcome Verification (EOV) is the “science inside” Savory Institute’s Land to Market program. Land to Market is a sourcing solution that connects conscientious buyers, brands and retailers directly to farms and ranches that are verified to be regenerating their land. EOV is the empirical instrument used to qualify participating farms and ranches into the program

Typical Use Case

EOV is a practical and scalable soil and landscape assessment methodology that tracks outcomes in biodiversity, soil health, and ecosystem function (water cycle, mineral cycle, energy flow and community dynamics). EOV applies to grassland environments, including natural and planted grasslands, as well as grassland mixed with crop and/or forest areas. Farms and ranches demonstrating positively trending outcomes in land regeneration through EOV are entered into a “Verified Regenerative Supplier Roster”, from which participating buyers, brands, retailers and end consumers can access products or services that have been produced on a verified regenerative land base.
