McDonalds Australia and Fulton Market Group (FMG) recently launched a national ‘Tassie to Townsville’ (T2T) project, focused on supporting Australian beef producers in measuring their farm’s emissions baseline and developing forward plans to reduce emissions levels in the future. Working as a group, the project allows producers who participate in the project to identify areas within their operation to improve their bottom line and profitability into the future. These projects will be funded through McDonalds.
Data for the T2T project is being managed by Ruminati in a practical online platform. Ruminati is seeking hubs of cattle producers to join the project and receive free access to Ruminati PRIME to prepare an emissions baseline and reduction plan, customised to their operation. If you would like to be involved, they will be hosting a full day workshop with Ruminati on the 4 of December – Monto Town Hall to provide further detail on the project and platform and generate a customised emissions report and plan for your operation.
If you would like further information on the session, please contact Matt Brown on: 0427 584 044
