“Farmers want to improve land. They want to improve resilience to extended droughts, extreme weather, and other effects of climate change. But most of all they want to earn more income from their land,” said Louisa Kiely, Director of Carbon Farmers of Australia, in an article published recently in the NSW Farmers, The Farmer Magazine.
The price of carbon continues to increase substantially, and Ms Kiely is keen to see farmers enjoy the advantages available to the agricultural sector via the farm-based carbon offsets industry. “It’s the ‘Farm of the Future’ – it’s already here,” says Ms Kiely.
Ms Kiely says farmers can improve income diversity, gain productivity, achieve carbon credits, emissions reductions, biodiversity benefits, and more.
The four-day program kicks off with a ‘Carbon Farming 101 Workshop’ – an introduction to the basics of carbon farming such as defining methods, projects, and markets.
Then over two days, there are in-depth sessions along with an expo full of trade displays from industry professionals and agricultural agencies and departments.
The National Carbon Farming Conference & Expo will be based at the Albury Entertainment Centre (Swift Street, Albury). Albury has plenty of accommodation within walking distance of the venue, and free all day parking is available at the Wilson Street car park just across from the conference venue.
