Almond Industry Workshop: Emissions Reporting and Greenhouse Gas Accounting

Stay ahead of emissions reporting requirements

Join the Murraylands and Riverland Landscape Board for an informative workshop hosted by Elders and Ag Innovation Australia, tailored for almond growers and relevant to other orchard crop types.

This hands-on session will introduce participants to Ag Innovation Australia’s Environmental Accounting Platform (EAP) – a practical tool that enables growers to calculate their own product emissions intensities. The EAP links directly with the official Horticulture Greenhouse Gas Accounting Framework (H-GGAF) and allows the reporting of multiple crop types within one unified framework.

With almond exports reaching diverse markets, including the EU, emissions transparency is becoming increasingly important, now is the time to prepare.

This workshop will:

• Demonstrate how to use the EAP for greenhouse gas reporting.

• Guide you through assembling and entering your production data.

• Offer opportunities for Q&A and technical support from the experts.

• Highlight how emissions data can enhance marketability and support future financing opportunities.

Whether you’re new to emissions reporting or ready to take the next step, this session will help you stay ahead in the changing sustainability landscape.
