Details

Do you have an interest in soil organic carbon?

In 2015 Riverina Local Land Services chose six farms to establish a baseline measurement for soil organic carbon. The farms range from the SW Highlands across the Riverina to the Rangelands and represent different farming systems.

The soil carbon story has been sampled, tested and mapped using a methodology developed by Dr Ischani Wheeler. Soil organic carbon can be accounted for when changes over time are measurable. This methodology brings science and technology together and your farm one step closer to carbon farming.

Presentation

Peter & Hazel McInerney, 3D-Ag Pty Ltd share the story of mapping soil organic carbon for Nick Austin's property Mundarlo, which represents a farming system within the South West Slopes.  Look at real values measured across the whole property. How does this compare to other localities in the greater Riverina region?

Ashley Paech, Farming Systems Project Officer, Holbrook Landcare Network.
How carbon tradingworks and the emissions reduction fund.
