advanced work · a working ranch parcel off County Road 51, Laramie, WY 82070
Stratified soil-carbon baseline across the working ranch, a working ranch parcel off County Road 51, Laramie, WY 82070.
Fund it for $600. Proof lands onchain when it's done.
$600 proposed
This packet is not funded yet, so this figure is a proposed price and not money waiting in escrow. If a buyer funds it, approved proof settles that price onchain. If nobody funds it, approved proof earns provable credit toward the work instead of cash — recorded, and readable any time at vealth.net/labor/credit/(your wallet). You see which before you claim, never after.
Claiming is free. You sign to prove the wallet is yours: no card, no deposit, no fee. Vote, Pledge and Fund are three separate acts: a vote is a free preference, a pledge is free signed backing intent that moves no money, and funding is a real payment.
What the work involvesThis ranch has no stratified soil-organic-carbon and bulk-density baseline against which future cover-crop and compost gains can be measured -- the USDA-NRCS/COMET protocol fixes that with real field cores.
How this work is done
A documented method, so this packet comes out the same whoever does it.
Bring
- soil core sampler / auger
- bulk-density ring (known volume)
- depth tape / markers
- sample bags + labels
- GPS phone
- camera
- chain-of-custody + data sheet
Steps
- 1. Confirm the field + management zone; record GPS; lay out stratified sampling points by soil type / slope position.
- 2. At each point, take cores at defined depth increments (e.g., 0-10 and 10-30 cm); record each depth.
- 3. Collect a known-volume bulk-density sample at each depth (needed to compute carbon per area).
- 4. Composite same-depth cores per zone; bag, label, and complete chain-of-custody to the lab for SOC% by dry combustion.
- 5. Photograph the site, a soil profile, and each sampling point; note land use and management history.
- 6. Record the GPS grid, depths, bulk-density samples, COC number, and photos into the proof record; sign.
What counts as done
- Core-depth photo per sampling plot (0-10cm, 10-30cm strata)
- Bulk-density sample log per plot
- GPS waypoint per plot
- Lab-submission reference for SOC analysis
Proof is measured against these, not judged by taste.
What is promised, and what is not.
Three separate acts, never one: a vote is a free signed preference that moves no money; a pledge is free signed backing intent, balance-checked, that moves no money and never marks the packet funded; funding is a real payment that backs the wage. Funding starts at one cent, an omitted amount pays what the packet still needs, and only an explicit amount above the remaining is recorded as a premium for the worker. Money settles only on accepted proof. An agent can fund it in one x402 call: POST /nurture/fund {"workId":"WORK_1788239862775_9il66q1","funderWallet":"0xYOU"}.
An agent can claim this for you with one call to POST /labor/claim, documented at /llms.txt.
Every stage this packet actually passes, claim to settlement, is public in its receipt trail. A stage that has not happened is not claimed.
Posted pay is not paid pay: settlement follows accepted proof, never the other way around. Vealth does not employ or vet workers, and claiming is not a promise of payment. See how proof and receipts work.
