*Conservation Agriculture is an ecosystem approach to regenerative
sustainable agriculture and land management based on the practical
application of context-specific and locally adapted three interlinked
principles of: (i) Continuous no or minimum mechanical soil disturbance
(no-till seeding/planting and weeding, and minimum soil disturbance with
all other farm operations including harvesting);  (ii) permanent
maintenance of soil mulch cover (crop biomass, stubble and cover crops);
and (iii) diversification of cropping system (economically, environmentally
and socially adapted rotations and/or sequences and/or associations
involving annuals and/or perennials, including legumes and cover crops),
along with other complementary good agricultural production and land
management practices. Conservation Agriculture systems are present in all
continents, involving rainfed and irrigated systems including annual
cropland systems, perennial systems, orchards and plantation systems,
agroforestry systems, crop-livestock systems, pasture and rangeland
systems, organic production systems and rice-based systems. Conservation
Tillage, Reduced Tillage and Minimum Tillage are not Conservation
Agriculture, and nor is No-Till on its own* (more at:

  HURRY!
Early Bird registration closes this Friday!!


This conference will give you the decision tools you need to drive your
carbon farming / regenerative agriculture efforts into the profit zone -
the price of carbon is increasing!
There is nowhere else to get the information contained in this 4 day event. *It
is the education*, not the talk fest.
I've just returned from the Carbon Market Institute conference and can
assure you of the growing interest in the Carbon Farming Market. There's
real need for those ‘large’ firms to offset their emissions and their need
for Carbon Credits with the BEST win/win story.

And you and I both know:
  Carbon Farming for Regenerative Agriculture has the BEST win/win story!
Early bird pricing CLOSES FRIDAY for the 2019 National Carbon Farming
Conference & Expo.

Add to this the increasing price of Australian Carbon Credit Units (ACCUs)
- $16.75 per ton last week, secondary market - up from $11.80 ONLY A YEAR
AGO - and indeed ‘ITS TIME’!

   - TIME to engage with the ‘methods’
   - TIME to influence HOW ‘Carbon Farming Trading’ evolves from here -
   - TIME for us to ask for WHAT *we* want - what does ‘success’ look like?
   - TIME to have the information you need to make decisions, at your
   fingertips!!

I’ve been busy gathering many more exciting and influential speakers for
you… Details very soon.
