ACE Farmers project
The ACE (Adapting to Carbon and Emissions) Farmers project is supporting primary producers across the Northern and Yorke region to drive agricultural growth, while adopting sustainable natural resource management practices that protect and conserve natural capital and biodiversity. ACE Farmers is a five-year project that commenced in 2024 and will conclude in 2028. As part of this project, we are delivering:
- workshops - weeds, soil, revegetation, carbon and more - check out our upcoming events
- conference - in 2025 we delivered the Carbon Ready Ag Conference: Making carbon farming and natural capital work for you - recordings from the conference sessions are now available
- videos - learn more about carbon and nature farming and soil health on our YouTube channel
- fact sheets - learn more about carbon and nature farming, soil health and sprayer calibration from our fact sheets linked below
- podcasts - listen to the 'What you need to know now' podcast
- grants - including On-Farm Dry Times grants, Carbon Storage grants, and revegetation packs
- surveys - to better understand land management and practice change over the project
