Through education, persistence, and simply “having a go”, Rowan Berecry from Good Rich Fruit Company found that introducing new practices had many unexpected benefits, including reduced inputs, improved soil health and increased soil carbon. This not only reduced their on-farm emissions, but also led to an increased demand for their fruit, the Queen Garnet plum.

Building resilience with biochar on a NSW cattle farm

Leave a Comment / Blog, Case Study / By

When John Winter discovered the concept of biochar almost 20 years ago, he knew it could play an important role in on-farm decarbonisation. By converting biomass into stable soil carbon – which improves soil health and reduces emissions – biochar has the potential to help the agriculture sector respond to climate challenges. John co-founded the

New podcast: How are farmers reducing emissions?

Leave a Comment / Blog / By

A new podcast series showcasing practical, farmer-led approaches to reducing on-farm emissions is coming soon. The six episodes will feature farmers and researchers who share their experiences, lessons and ideas on the journey to decarbonisation. But it’s not always easy. Podcast host, farmer and extension officer Pippa Jones (also a Nuffield scholar) asks farmers: What
