  Hello and G'day!

Yes, here we are - A new year, a new policy.  Direct Action off and
running, and the first round of the Emissions Reduction Fund (ERF)
announced.   $2.55 billion over the next 4 years or so to be spent.

However, as foretold late last year, the Land Sector has much competition
now.  Farmers are used to competing with other Land holders, but did we
ever think that we'd be competing with the Industrial Sector?     We need
to be knowledgeable  and pro-active to compete with the City Methodologies
now.

We are determined to  keep the Carbon Trade in Rural and Regional Australia
- add to the $40Million already flowing into the Central West of NSW  - but
there is much to learn and do!

The good news is that the Land Sector has the MOST methods approved, with a
few more good ones coming. But how to choose what to put in on your farm?

To make this choice easy, we have developed the idea of the 'whole of farm
carbon audit' - Whereby you look at the potentials against your own
operation and 'choose'  what might suit you.  Click here
<http://www.carbonfarmersofaustralia.com.au/CampaignProcess.aspx?A=Link&VID=12742069&KID=210474&LID=1084834>
to get your copy of the document.

ALSO - we are conferencing again!  This time in Albury - another great
Rural and Regional Centre.   We are the only 'grass roots' conference in
Australia and we will showcase REAL farmers doing these 'methods'.

More than the name for the policy has changed!  Come to find out more. The
first round of the ERF will be over, and we will know the outcome.   Get
into the second round to get your fair share of the $2.55 billion.   Click
here to get the flyer

  Put the dates in your diary!

As ever, please don't hesitate to give me a bell with any queries. I'm on
02 6374 0329.

Onwards!
