Carbon and Emissions Resource Kit

The purpose of this Carbon and Emissions Resource Kit is to provide a one stop place to access existing trusted, publicly available and science-based resources, tools and training related to carbon and emissions in agriculture.

Why do I need to manage my emissions and where do I start?

• Supply chains are seeking to source lower emissions of food and fibre.
• A good place to start is to understand your emissions profile.
• There are different tools available to estimate farm emissions.
• Supply chains and farm advisors play a critical role in supporting emissions reduction on farms.
• Reducing emissions is part of improved efficiency and good business management.

Is carbon farming something I should be doing more of?

• Carbon sequestration in soils and trees can play a beneficial role in farms.
• Current carbon stores on farms are critical to protect (stewardship) and improve a farm’s bottom line.
• Before farmers sell their carbon, there are important questions to consider.
• Science -based information and advice can help farmers make informed decisions on carbon trading, net-zero emissions and carbon neutrality.
