Carbon Farming Outreach Program
A carbon-neutral farm reaps productivity, environmental co-benefits, and potentially increased profit as markets, banks and insurance companies increasingly seek to achieve their carbon emissions commitments. With so much information available in a rapidly evolving space, knowing what is right for your farm can be difficult to navigate.
Support and advice
The Kangaroo Island Landscape Board is here to support you as a carbon smart land manager. Our team has local knowledge and expertise and can provide free, independent advice to rural land managers on:
- Understanding emissions reduction and carbon sequestration
- How to calculate on-farm emissions
- Understanding new reporting requirements
- Connecting with like-minded land managers
- Participating in carbon markets
