SUMMARY:Webinar: Working Towards Net Zero Agriculture
DESCRIPTION:Farmers face real challenges and opportunities in reducing emissions while staying productive. \nJoin us for a practical webinar where you’ll learn: \nHow the Pathfinder tool (developed by CSIRO + Clean Energy Finance Council) works and what it can do for your farm – from fertiliser optimisation to methane-reducing pasture species. \nAccording to CSIRO: Pathfinder is a practical\, evidence-based resource detailing both known and emerging methods to reduce on-farm emissions across broadacre and livestock. It equips farmers with support and strategies to adopt lower-emissions options\, and adjust activities that are essential to on-farm practice\, including: \n\nVariable rate (VR) technologies:optimising fertiliser and lime application by combining paddock spatial variability with GPS technology and VR input controllers to improve yield\, soil quality and reduce costs\nPasture rejuvenation: using certain legume and herb species\, which can help reduce livestock methane emissions\, and fertility as well as improve forage quality\, feed efficiency and soil condition\nPermanent plantings: sequestering carbon while providing windbreaks\, shade and shelter for livestock\, and habitat for native animals and birds\nFeed supplements:Incorporating methane-reducing feed additives\, such as asparagopsis seaweed\, to lower livestock methane emissions while maintaining animal health and productivity.\nHow to access green and sustainable finance options to implement climate-smart practices on farm.
