TECHNICAL AND CONSULTANCY SERVICES FOR
CARBON FARMING PROJECTS
Soil sampling on carbon farming projects under the Emissions Reduction Fund (ERF) and voluntary carbon farming methodologies is complex process requiring expertise. Our experiencelies in working with these methodologies and providing services that are audit ready for the Clean Energy Regulator (CER) and verification schemes. Under ERF and like soil carbon methodologies, we have taken over 10,000 samples on many projects across Australia. We sampled the first project in Australia to obtain Australian Carbon Credit Units (ACCU's) and continue to provide quality, trusted services to the sector. We conduct soil sampling and record keeping complying with auditor standards but you get far more with our soil science and technical capacity and extensive field experience. We handle Chain of Custody (COC) to accredited laboratories and reporting on request. Our plant and ancillary equipment is to specification under methodology and our soil technicians are certified with a background in soil science.
