National Industry-led Carbon Farming Outreach Program

Cut through the carbon confusion with practical workshops that clarify the opportunities and challenges of carbon farming and emissions reduction.



Making sense of carbon farming.

The conversation around carbon farming and emissions reduction can be overwhelming and confusing. As a farmer-led organisation, AgForce’s mission is to help farmers become prepared and confident on both the benefits and challenges of carbon farming. This FREE workshop will sort the fact from the fiction, helping you understand the fundamentals of carbon farming, the potential opportunities and pitfalls, how you can fit in and where to start.   

  • These practical sessions have clear, unbiased information with hands-on activities to apply what you learn.
  • The workshops are delivered by an independent provider with no hidden agenda.
  • This is free and open to everyone, whether you’re an AgForce Member or not.
  • The workshops will cover a lot in one day—well worth a day away from the paddock!
