Presented by Associate Professor Beverley Henry, Sam Duncan, Luke Signor & David Allen
Unpacking how soil carbon works and what opportunities exist for land managers.
Can’t pick your carbon from your cations? Getting into a quandary over clays? Wondering about the potential for soil carbon as a climate solution or cash ‘crop’?
If you have ever wondered how sequestration of carbon in soil works, or what opportunities exist for you to generate saleable credits from storing carbon in soils, or what other benefits increasing soil organic carbon might offer, this webinar is for you.
The panel of experts presented on how to get the carbon into soils – and to unpack the potential for keeping it there. The webinar addresses the following topics:
- What is soil organic carbon and how can we keep it? – Associate Professor Beverley Henry from Queensland University of Technology
- Where soil carbon can be stored – sequestration potential across Australia – Sam Duncan, Chief Executive Officer, FarmLab
- Soil carbon credits – understanding the life cycle of a soil carbon project under the Emissions Reduction Fund soil carbon method – Luke Signor, Assistant Manager – Savanna, Agriculture and Soil, the Clean Energy Regulator
- Perspectives at ground level – understanding a farmer’s experience of running a soil carbon project – David Allen, farmer from the Corangamite region in south-western Victoria.
