Landcare Victoria will host five carbon farming webinars this year, delivered as part of the Carbon Farming Outreach Program.
The first of these is all about soil carbon, see the details below.
They are also hosting an accounting webinar, specifically for environmental groups including Landcare, and they suggest this may be of interest to groups that have recently incorporated and/or registered as a charity.
Webinar: Digging into Soil Carbon
Healthy soils are the foundation of farming. Building soil carbon can have a range of benefits for your farm but your ability to store carbon in the long term can depend on a range of factors like rainfall, soil type and management practices. That’s why we’re bringing Dr Cassandra Schefe and other experts together to answer your questions around soil health.
There’s a lot to dig into with soils so this webinar will look at the science of healthy soils, how to best use soil tests and practical examples of how you can build soil carbon to increase productivity and drought resilience.
When: Thursday, 1 May – 5pm – 7.30pm
Where: Online, via Zoom
