This four-part Carbon Series from the Soil Wealth ICP project breaks down the practicalities of carbon farming for vegetable growers and looks more closely at soil carbon management.
The Carbon Series has been produced to help Australian vegetable growers to:
- Make decisions to manage soil carbon for increased productivity
- Calculate current emissions and assess the potential for emission reductions within their business
- Assess the viability of participating in an official carbon credit scheme
- Consider carbon neutrality as a path to differentiate products and the business, on the market.
Part 3 discusses carbon emissions in vegetable production.
