Bringing it together – Carbon and Emissions Resource Kit
9 December 2024
Agriculture Victoria is confident the new one-stop spot for existing resources, tools and training related to carbon and emissions in agriculture, will help people navigate their understanding of carbon farming.
Agriculture Victoria Climate Change Service Development Officer, Heather Field, said the new digital kit includes links to a range of Agriculture Victoria products and resources, plus industry and Australian government resources.
‘The purpose of the Carbon and Emissions Resource Kit is to provide a one-stop spot to access existing trusted, publicly available and science-based resources, tools and training related to carbon and emissions in agriculture.
‘The kit will be a valuable resource for service providers including consultants, government agency staff and advisors delivering carbon and emissions information and management strategies to farmers.
‘This new product can be used in the Carbon Farming Outreach Program which supports farmers and land managers to understand carbon farming and how they can benefit from moving to a low-carbon future,’ Ms Field said.
Ms Field said the new kit provides information to help address 3 key questions asked by farmers; why do I need to manage my emissions? where do I start? and is carbon farming something I should be doing more of?
