About the Event
On Thursday 21st March we’re running a half day workshop on understanding farm carbon emissions and how to do up your own farm emissions profile, delivered by Richard Brake.
You can have a go at creating an emissions profile beforehand using our new toolkit. If you can't, come along anyway. The toolkit to guides producers through the process of creating an emissions profile. Two local farmers we spoke with estimated it took them about 2 hours to create an emissions profile. Call our project coordinator Jan Clawson if you have questions along the way: 0407 990 497 or janclawson@asheepbeef.org.au.
