This chapter considers in detail the activities that constitute carbon farming and that allow the generation of ACCUs. The chapter sets out the two ways to farm carbon:
-
by avoiding (that is, eliminating or reducing) agricultural emissions that would otherwise have occurred
-
by sequestering CO2 from the atmosphere into the landscape.
After reading this chapter, you will:
-
understand the restrictions on those activities under current CFI legislation
-
have an overview of the range of activities that make up carbon farming
-
understand how the ERF may affect the coverage of activities that can earn ACCUs
