Beginner's Guide to Carbon Farming - American River

Are you a farmer or land manager and curious to learn how low-emissions farming can benefit your business?

The Kangaroo Island Landscape Board are rolling out a series of free Beginner's Guide to Carbon Farming workshops to support local land managers in the uptake of carbon farming and low-emissions technologies and practices.

Join the KI Landscape Board for our American River workshop and a free cooked breakfast on 17th June!

Navigating this rapidly evolving space can be difficult and these workshops provide clear, consistent and locally relevant information on carbon farming and Australia’s new mandatory climate-related financial disclosures. These requirements impact banks, insurance companies, big business and all their suppliers- including our farmers!

Beyond reporting requirements, there are a number of opportunities as reducing on-farm greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and/or sequestering carbon has a number of co-benefits. A low-emission or carbon-neutral farm reaps productivity, environmental co-benefits, and potentially increased profit.

We are running workshops across the island during June 2025 so please check out our other events to find a workshop near you.

This project is funded by the Commonwealth of Australia through the Department of Climate Change, Energy, the Environment, and Water under the Carbon Farming Outreach Program.
