Impact Metrics
Proof is layered.
In CID, proof is not a single moment of verification. It is structured as layers — each representing a different level of context, resolution, and reliability.
GHG Emissions
Estimated Cradle-to-Gate total emissions for UG-MBALE-DARLEY-2024-SA-001.
Carbon Footprint/kg
Per-kg carbon intensity. Dry mill + shade grown Arabica.
People Involved
Darley network smallholder farmers + processing staff.
Data Coverage
CrossCut canonical 22 fields coverage. Updated dynamically from database.
Wherever you engage, you anchor to the same Coffee ID
Your role may differ. The Coffee ID remains the same.
Origin
Farmer
Record land, practices, and decisions. The starting point of every Coffee ID — connecting terroir data to the people who shape it.
Mill
Add processing methods and timing. Washing, drying, fermentation — each step becomes a verifiable layer.
Aggregation
Coop
Aggregate without erasing individuality. Community lots retain each farmer's contribution and context.
Exporter
Compliance from structured context. EUDR, carbon reporting, and due diligence built from real data.
Transformation
Importer
Read layers as degrees of understanding. Quality scores, certifications, and origins arrive with full provenance.
Roaster
Add quality interpretations. Cupping notes, roast profiles, and blend decisions layer onto the existing ID.
Experience
Cafe
Reference context, not single stories. Share verifiable origin and impact data with customers at point of sale.
Consumer
See what is known. See what is not. Scan, verify, and understand the full journey of your coffee.
