Our Government is continuing work on a soil carbon methodology under our policy known as the 'Carbon Farming Initiative', which, amongst other opportunities, allows landholders to earn carbon credits from Land based activities, including soil carbon, biochar and various types of tree regeneration, planting and protection. Our organisation, Carbon Farmers of Australia have recently been appointed to the Gold Standard International Advisory Panel on Climate Smart Agriculture. We are proud to be a part of this initiative.
