Carbon Farming Skills
The ongoing Carbon Farming Skills initiative will ensure that landholders have access to credible, high quality advice
and carbon services.
This measure will fund:
- development of a new nationally accredited qualification for carbon service providers
- accreditation of carbon brokers and aggregators operating in the Carbon Farming Initiative; and
- information workshops for farm extension officers, catchment authorities and rural service providers about
carbon farming.
The program, with funding of $4 million over five years, will commence in July 2012.
Carbon Farming Skills will be administered by the Department of Climate Change and Energy Efficiency.
