- Soil Carbon Basics Webinar
Can’t pick your carbon from your cations? Getting into a quandary over clays? Wondering about the potential for soil carbon as a climate solution or cash ‘crop’?
If you have ever wondered how sequestration of carbon in soil works, or what opportunities exist for you to generate saleable credits from storing carbon in soils, or what other benefits increasing soil organic carbon might offer, this webinar is for you.
In this NRM Regions Australia webinar you can hear from our panel of experts on how to get the carbon into soils - and to unpack the potential for keeping it there.
The webinar addresses the following topics:
• What is soil organic carbon and how can we keep it?
Associate Professor Beverley Henry from Queensland University of Technology
• Where soil carbon can be stored - sequestration potential across Australia.
Sam Duncan, Chief Executive Officer, FarmLab
• Soil carbon credits - understanding the life cycle of a soil carbon project under the Emissions Reduction Fund soil carbon method
Luke Signor, Assistant Manager - Savanna, Agriculture and Soil, the Clean Energy Regulator
• Perspectives at ground level - understanding a farmer’s experience of running a soil carbon project
David Allen, farmer from the Corangamite region in south-western Victoria.
This webinar is targeted at regional NRM organisation staff with some general knowledge of carbon farming, but anyone with an interest in soil carbon will benefit.
Panel of speakers
Associate Professor Beverley Henry from Queensland University of Technology
Beverley Henry has been involved in research, policy and industry roles across agriculture and land use sectors for 30 years. Her work has largely been in the areas of climate change, climate variability and environmental management, including in greenhouse gas and carbon credit accounting and monitoring.
Sam Duncan Chief Executive Officer, FarmLab
Sam is a passionate advocate for sustainable agriculture. A lover of the outdoors and an Air Force veteran of 12 years, he founded FarmLab in 2016 with the hypothesis that if farmers had better soil data, they could better manage soil carbon. Since then, FarmLab has evolved into a sustainability company, helping farmers and their consultants collect and measure the environment using technology.
Luke Signor- Assistant Manager in the Savanna, Agriculture and Soil Carbon Credits team at the Clean Energy Regulator
Luke’s primary role is the facilitation and regulation of soil carbon projects registered under the Emissions Reduction Fund. This includes managing the registration, crediting and variation of any projects in the soil carbon space.
David Allen - Soil Carbon Farmer, south west Victoria
David runs a beef, wool and cropping farm that has been in the family for 116 years. David has been involved in Landcare for around 30 years, and are currently running a soil carbon project on their farm. David’s property is a McDonalds Flagship Farm - the only one in Australia.
Very useful information
Hello from California .
Great
A Huge factor in regard to CO2 Sequestration is the *EFFICIENCY* of Photosynthesis in Healthy Plants compared to "Normal" Plants. Today, the Photosynthetic Efficiency is only 10% to 15% in our Crop Plants. Healthy Plants Photosynthesize at 40% to 60% Efficiency. SO... THEY PRODUCE ~ 4 TIMES AS MUCH SUGAR.... Like having 4 times as many plants FEEDING THE SOIL. Huge Factor.
Healthy Plants require Healthy Soils... OR....In "Normal Dead Soils"... a Management System that USES PLANT SAP ANALYSIS of Nutrient Uptake) & Foliar Application of deficient nutrients...the ONLY PROVEN WAY to produce Healthy Plants without ALREADY HAVING Healthy Soil....which we mostly dont have.
Further....Healthy Plants EXUDE Higher Amounts of Lipids in exudates (species variable) AND Fungi Turns Lipids into Stable Humates (after many steps of lipid digestion) resulting is 5 to 10 times MORE Very STABLE HUMATES PRODUCED by Healthy Plants compared to Normal Plants.
(See Videos by John Kempf at Advancing Eco Agriculture Regarding Plant Health and Co2 Sequestration Efficiency.... and Healthy Plant TOTAL Resistance to Pests and Diseases😮)
Not sure what a welcome to country does for your research? I suppose it's tow the line, or no funding?
That's not too coherent of a comment?
@@whatabouttheearth what’s the point of a welcome to country, is my point. Virtue signalling is now mandatory if you work for the government?
😅😅

science and real world test tube versus field biology complex and what outcomes do you want how efficient do you want to be yield verses songbird tractors or shovel or horse .
Things act different in a lab than in soil. Whats your point? Just pointing out the dichotomy?
Carbon, or Co2? Both entirely different.
Or YT Chanel Geo Girl video What is carbon sequestration...
Carbon
The above commenter is right. I'd suggest Geo Girls videos on biogeochemical cycles, carbon isotopes, redox and fractionalization.
Carbon is not generally stored as CO2, it is usually broken up through a hydrolysis reaction and the oxygen is used for other things.
