Hosted by the NSW Department of Primary Industries and Regional Development, this webinar covers the interpretation of soil data and land capability for considering a soil carbon project in NSW. Watch webinar.

When managing soil carbon, it’s important for land managers to understand the soil and landscape environment to maximise potential soil carbon capture. Hosted by the NSW Department of Primary Industries and Regional Development, this webinar showcases NSW online soil and land data which can be used to by farmers and advisors to determine soil carbon potential on-farm. Watch webinar.

The Soil CRC has surveyed thousands of landholders across six Australian farming regions, in North Central Victoria, Central West NSW, the Western Australian Wheatbelt, Tasmania, South Australia’s Eyre Peninsula and the Wimmera region of Victoria. Read our project reports to learn more.

This fact sheet outlines the research findings from the Soil CRC’s plant-based solutions to improve soil performance project (4.1.002) led by Professor Terry Rose from Southern Cross University.
