WHOLE-OF-FARM APPROACH
There are various carbon methods for every facet of your farm.
We recommend landholders work with us to develop a carbon strategy to build a portfolio of carbon activities on their land which optimises the carbon market outcomes and helps to fund a whole-of-farm approach.
This helps plan for cash flow, ongoing income and, in some cases, succession planning
SOIL CARBON
- Soil carbon sequestration
- Reducing nitrous oxide emissions from agricultural soils
- Applying biochar to increase soil organic carbon
- Claying to increase soil carbon content
- Liming to increase carbon sequestration
- Composting to avoid methane production
- Use of manure
LIVESTOCK
- Genetics in methane reduction
- Managing pastures and stocking rates to reduce methane emissions
- Nutrition and feed additives to reduce methane emissions
PLANTING, REVEG & PLANTATIONS
- Permanent environmental plantings to earn carbon credits
- Revegetation of land
- Plantations
- Energy Crops
FUELS & BIOENERGY
- Hydrogen
- Liquid bio-fuel as a replacement for fossil fuel
- Biomass and bioenergy
INTEGRATED WHOLE-OF-FARM MANAGEMENT METHOD
- Multiple land-based activities combined on the same land
- New ERF method coming soon
HOW it works
Once you have decided to explore a soil carbon project for your land, it is important to complete a pre-feasibility assessment of all your options.
STEP 1
