Our Chief Scientific Officer, Robert Crossley, recently spoke at the NZ Society of Soil Science and Soil Science Australia joint conference - #SoilsRotorua2024 - alongside Senani Karunaratne from CSIRO. They discussed Minimum Creditable Change (MCC) - a statistical measure to report the capacity to measure soil carbon changes in the landscape for a sampling program using the Australian Soil Carbon Crediting Methodology. Well done both! 👏
I was so encouraged to see so many papers presented on the function of the soil biology and its influence on the pathways of soil carbon sequestration at the joint NZSSS and SSA conference in Rotorua last week, and in particular the fate of root exudates, a source of low molecular weight organic carbon that is commonly simply discounted as being inconsequential. Also of note to me was the improved understanding and acceptance of the practices that could be considered regenerative, and the work being done on the influence of clay and iron hydroxides on soil carbon sequestration. The soil biological processes are an area of science that has been ignored or treated superficially in the soil carbon models that are often used to make claims about soil carbon sequestration. I can undertand this as we simply don't understand the processes enough to be able to model them using process models. We don't even know what metrics we need to measure to be able to model those process. In my opinion, it has been a major failing of my generation of soil scientists as there was substantial interest and research in this area prior to when we did our studies, but was completely ignored by our lecturers and subsequently by my generation of soil scientists. Or maybe I just missed that lecture. But if I had of been aware of just how much effort plants put into feeding the soil biome, I would have felt compelled to try to understand what was the ecological advantage for plants to do this. Now with the advances and reduced costs of DNA profiling, and the focus of our bright young minds on this area, we might be able to make some long overdue progress in our understanding, and maybe gain insight into the science behind what we can see happening in agriculture under regenerative practices. I believe that in 10 years time, this generation of researchers will look back at how we currently think we understand the processes of soil carbon sequestration and shake their head at the cognitive bias that our generation has shown on this subject. But this is an old soil scientist that hopefully will still be around to cheer you all on. I hope I can contribute meaningfully to the progress by improving our ability to measure the changes.

We couldn't agree more with the message for #WorldSoilDay - in fact, it's been our motto for years. We began began with a vision to bridge the divide between traditional and regenerative agriculture, and improve soil health for Australian farmers. It's our mission to educate, enable and support producers to measure, manage, monitor and monetise their carbon farming potential. 🌱 Improved biodiversity and microbiology: we know that just one key benefit of increased Soil Organic Carbon (SOC) is providing energy for soil microbes, boosting their activity, supporting plant growth, and fostering beneficial soil fungi. This enriched environment enhances resilience to environmental stress and strengthens the food web. 🌱 As well as increased water holding capacity and drought resilience: each tonne of SOC added per hectare increases water retention, reducing runoff and erosion. 🌱 And other productivity (and profitability) benefits. Importantly - while we've project managed 92% of all ACCUs issued to date, we strongly believe that carbon credits should be viewed as a bonus for managing the ecology well.

Soil’s importance to life on this planet cannot be overstated. The theme for today’s #WorldSoilDay is “Caring for Soils: Measure, Monitor, Manage”. Delighted to continue to promote this vital, life-sustaining resource as Co-Chair of the Parliamentary Friends of Soil. At a recent breakfast to mark World Soil Day at Australian Parliament House, SoilCRC PhD student Reuben Mah showed the audience his impressive Lab on a Chip, which allows farmers and researchers to test soil accurately and in real time instead of having to take samples to the laboratory for analysis, saving time and money. The device has already been tested in the field and displayed promising results.

If you're interested in soil carbon in any way, Terry McCosker OAM is the person to talk to. Terry is known as one of the great innovators in Australian agriculture, committed to bridging the divide between traditional and regenerative agriculture, and ensuring the resilience of farming families. With over 55 years in research, extension, and property management across public and private sectors, Terry has published over 40 papers. In recognition of his contributions, Central Queensland University awarded him an Honorary Doctor of Agribusiness in March 2015, and he received an OAM in the 2021 Queen’s Birthday Honours for services to agriculture. He co-founded RCS Australia in 1985, establishing a benchmark for capacity building in rural and regional Australia, and independently rated by a Government survey as Australia’s most trusted farming knowledge source. A pioneer in soil carbon and carbon farming, Terry founded CarbonLink in 2007, where he remains Chairman. Register now to hear from Terry in our 'Boost Productivity & Profitability with a Soil Carbon Project' free webinar: https://lnkd.in/gzPZHfC9. 🗓️ 27 November 2024, 5.30PM (AEST) 🎟️ Free! -- We want to challenge the belief that soil carbon projects require sacrifices to productivity or profitability. Our experts will present you with compelling case studies showcasing successful increases in both profitability and productivity alongside soil carbon initiatives, while also examining instances where productivity did not improve as expected—analysing the reasons and lessons learned. See you there!
