Carbon Farming

Soil organic carbon is in effect a scorecard for regenerative farming practices. The broader remit beyond carbon is to commercialise regenerative practices to enable producers to access a premium supply chain while the public gains access to more nutritious food and a regenerating environment.

​Thursday 14th March 2019 is a historic date, making the issuance of the first Australian Carbon Credit Units (ACCUs) to a soil carbon project under the government’s Emissions Reduction Fund (ERF).

Soil organic carbon is in effect a scorecard for regenerative farming practices. The broader remit beyond carbon is to commercialise regenerative practices to enable producers to access a premium supply chain while the public gains access to more nutritious food and a regenerating environment.

Today marks an important milestone in the transition of agriculture from a source of greenhouse gas emissions to significant carbon sink. Corporate Carbon is proud to receive the first carbon credits issued for a soil carbon project under the Emissions Reduction Fund.

‘Not only will these soil carbon credits be the first to count towards Australia’s national targets under The Paris Agreement but they are the first soil credits worldwide to be eligible under Paris’, said Corporate Carbon Managing Director, Matthew Warnken.
