If you’re a producer in Australia, chances are you’ve heard of soil carbon farming. But what is it? And more importantly, what are the benefits? Soil carbon farming is gaining traction as an effective way to improve soil health, reduce risk for businesses, and mitigate climate change.
Producers across Australia are wondering how the new carbon market will affect them. There is a lot of speculation about how producers can make money from this by changing their farming practices, and many people are unsure about what the legislation actually entails.
Soil carbon farming is the process of improving your soil health through better management of pasture through the grazing animal, or better management of cultivation products or cultivars through better soil management.
A SERIES of soil carbon projects across Queensland and New South Wales are expected to yield carbon credits by the end of next month, with the industry regulator working through the auditing process.
Australian farmers have the potential to increase their profitability by engaging in a soil carbon project, according to leading soil carbon project developer CarbonLink.
