Interested in finding out more on hydrogen as a clean energy source?
Hydrogen is a potential alternative energy source in the development of agro fertilisers and chemicals. As emissions in the production, and on farm use of these products can be very high, green hydrogen may be important for farmers and the Ag industry in reaching carbon neutrality. ...

* adopted at board level, targets set and reported on,
* extension opportunities,
* specialist skills (emissions trading schemes),
* the next generation,
* baseline measurements are critical. They need verifying and to not be costly to the farmer.

Overseas policy makers will use both a carrot and stick approach on imported commodities to reach carbon neutrality.

Elizabeth is overseeing carbon calculations on their farms and sees exciting opportunities in decarbonisation. “We all have a role to help solve this problem”. #climatechange #carbonneutrality #farmingforever #agzero2030 ...

GRDC chair John Woods was positively firm on GRDC’s GHG emissions commitments and projects, leaving no doubt as to where they see the grains industry heading. “⬇️ GHG emissions is absolutely compatible with ⬆️ in productivity.”🌏=🌾 ...
