Carbon farming tools

With the Carbon Farming Opportunities tool users can explore the cumulative carbon stock for vegetation-based Australian Carbon Credit Unit (ACCU) scheme methods.

Economically viable opportunities under different carbon prices and future climates on carbon accumulation can be explored.

Estimates of soil organic carbon sequestration resulting from a potential long-term woody vegetation increase are provided.

This tool was developed by the New South Wales Department of Primary Industries and Regional Development (DPIRD) in collaboration with the University of South Australia (UniSA).

Note, this tool is currently under review and will be available again soon.


Calculate your emissions

The NSW DPIRD's On-Farm Carbon Advice project uses the Agriculture Innovation Australia (AIA) Environmental Accounting Platform (EAP) to support participants calculate their on-farm emissions.

The AIA Environmental Accounting Platform (EAP) provides a common and standardised approach to carbon accounting across multiple commodities. This tool was was built by AIA with investment from 10 rural Research and Development Corporations. and is consistent with the most widely-used calculators - the University of Melbourne's Primary Industries Climate Challenges Centre (PICCC) Greenhouse Accounting Frameworks (GAF) tools.

You can create a whole of enterprise footprint, review your carbon accounting outputs, baseline your enterprise and use scenario planning to help make decisions.
