Maximising ecosystem opportunities to fit your business: Carbon — Webinar
2022-12-01 13:00 - 15:30
What do resilient agricultural investments look like? As economies transition towards lower emissions, new carbon neutrality and emission-efficient technologies are presenting economic, environmental and social market opportunities to Australian producers.
In this webinar, Landcare Farming will bring together five experts to advise on ‘carbon literacy’ for producers and the role of carbon sequestration solutions in reaching decarbonisation targets, alongside the opportunities that will unfold for Australia’s agricultural industry in the coming years.
Presenters include Professor Richard Eckard, Dr Warwick Badgery, Dr Stephen Wiedemann, Dr Hayley McMillan, and Melinee Leather.

Demystifying carbon projects: Human-Induced Regeneration method — webinar
2022-12-02 12:30 - 13:30
This BeefConnect webinar kicks off a ‘demystifying carbon projects’ series, exploring real life scenarios in grazing systems.Human-Induced Regeneration (HIR) projects encourage native vegetation regeneration and represent approximately 45% of all carbon credits issued by Australia’s Clean Energy Regulator to date. Native vegetation regeneration has higher sequestration certainty than many other methods and provides an option for producers in terms of offsetting on-farm emissions or income diversification. However, like most opportunities it comes with risks.Join us, as Simon Campbell (Head of Carbon Offsets & Biodiversity – Integrity Ag and Environment) unpacks how the HIR method works including:

An overview of the current HIR market.
The what, how and why of the method and how it works on-farm.
Key risks to consider.
Available decision support tools.

Demystifying Carbon Projects: Soil Carbon - Webinar
2023-04-11 10:00 - 11:00
This BeefConnect and Carbon Neutral Grazier Network webinar brings our second round of the ‘demystifying carbon projects’ series. There are currently 289 soil carbon projects registered under Australia’s Emissions reduction scheme; 73% of which were registered in 2022 following the previous federal governments $54.4 million commitment to support farmers and land managers to access low-cost soil sampling and certified testing in exchange for sharing their data under the Pilot Soil Monitoring and Incentives Program. Of the 45 projects that were registered early enough to have been issued Australian Carbon Credit Units, only one Victorian project has been awarded credits.
Join Associate Professor Matthew Harrison (University of Tasmania), Adjunct Associate Professor Beverley Henry (Queensland University of Technology) and 4th Generation mixed farmer, Steven Hobbs of Kaniva, Victoria for a robust discussion around soil carbon and soil carbon projects in southern and northern Australia.
