CarbonLink is proud to announce the continuation of its partnership with the Queensland Farmers’ Federation (QFF), reinforcing a shared commitment to supporting Queensland producers as they navigate the evolving carbon economy.
Throughout the first year of the partnership CarbonLink and QFF worked together closely to highlight the real opportunities soil carbon projects offer to enhance farm productivity, profitability, as well as environmental outcomes.
QFF is the united voice of agriculture in Queensland, representing the state’s agricultural peak industry bodies who collectively represent more than 13,000 farmers who produce food, fibre, and foliage across Queensland. Through policy leadership and industry‑wide collaboration, QFF works to address the key challenges and opportunities shaping the future of Queensland agriculture.
As QFF’s preferred provider for soil carbon projects, CarbonLink brings world‑leading expertise to the partnership. A pioneer in Australian soil carbon, CarbonLink’s work is backed by cutting‑edge research and development, advanced measurement technologies, and a dedicated team of Carbon Farming Advisors, soil scientists, GIS technicians, and project specialists. Together, they help producers improve soil health, increase landscape resilience, and unlock new opportunities through the Australian Carbon Credit Unit (ACCU) market.
The continued partnership will focus on supporting the uptake of soil carbon projects across Queensland, improving access to credible, science‑based information, and ensuring landholders are equipped with the tools they need to make informed decisions about carbon farming and sustainable land management.
A key component of the partnership includes joint engagement activities to help farmers better understand carbon policy developments, market trends, and the practical steps involved in undertaking a soil carbon project.
CarbonLink and QFF will also continue to advocate for greater government funding opportunities to assist landholders entering the ACCU market, improving access to climate adaptation programs, and tax settings that benefit producers contributing to nature-positive solutions.
CarbonLink CEO, Chris McCosker:
“Australian producers are on the frontline of climate challenges and environmental stewardship. By renewing our partnership with QFF, we’re supporting Queensland producers to have access to trusted, practical guidance rooted in science, innovation, and decades of carbon farming expertise.”
QFF CEO, Jo Sheppard:
“Our partnership with CarbonLink strengthens our ability to support Queensland farmers as they explore new opportunities to boost production, productivity and diversify their on-farm income, including in the carbon market. CarbonLink’s leadership in soil carbon measurement, project development and producer engagement is invaluable in helping our members make informed, future‑focused decisions.”
Through this partnership, CarbonLink and QFF reaffirm their commitment to driving sustainable growth for Queensland agriculture, supporting producers today while helping shape a climate‑resilient, productive, and profitable future for the sector.
