We’re for Australian producers. That is why when we work with you on your carbon farming project, we do so by offering the complete end-to-end solution. Welcome to CarbonLink™
Carbon farming is a great way to make your agricultural business more resilient. Opening new sources of income and reducing risk. However, it can be difficult to find reliable information about how to get started. That’s why we created the NetCarbon™ Producer Program. It’s your one-stop-shop. An end-to-end carbon farming program that does all the heavy lifting leaving you to get on with what you do best.
We suggest your begin by watching our carbon farming video explainers, reviewing our FAQs, and learning about what carbon farming solutions we offer Australian producers. Or, complete our enquiry form for a Free carbon farming assessment of your land.

Regenerative agriculture places value on good soil health leveraging it to underpin the rehabilitation of your farms ecosystem. With such a strong focus on soil in the regenerative agriculture process, it’s a natural partner with soil carbon farming.
This is a win-win situation.
As you adopt regenerative practices, you’ll not only greatly improve carbon capture in your soil, but your soil, and through it your land will become more diverse and resilient. Learn more about sequestration.
In this video explainer I cover the fundamentals of carbon farming including Australian Carbon Credit Units (ACCUs), how traditional farming (regenerative agriculture) is used to increase soil carbon and ways you can get started.
We’ve got all the acronyms explained – what’s an ACCU and who is the ERF? Visit our FAQs for more.
Carbon farming is opportunity for Australian producers to build a more resilient business.
Producers see the obvious benefits of carbon farming. However, they have told us, first and foremost it’s about reputation and trust when choosing a partner. Producers want to partner with an Australian carbon farming team that can deliver a project end-to-end. We’ve answered the call creating the NetCarbon™ Producer Program. It’s Australia’s leading carbon farming program delivering peerless support.
What primary industries is carbon farming best suited for?
Carbon farming is an agricultural practice that helps to sequester carbon in the soil, making it an important tool in the fight against climate change. There are a number of different carbon farming practices, but they all share the common goal of increasing carbon storage in the soil. Carbon farming is well suited to a number of different primary industries, including agriculture, forestry and land management.
In Australia, carbon farming has been used to create carbon offset projects that generate carbon credits. These credits are called Australian Carbon Credit Units (ACCUs) that can then be sold on the carbon market to businesses and individuals who are looking to offset their emissions. The Australian government’s Emissions Reduction Fund (ERF) has also supported carbon farming projects, providing financial incentives for business to adopt low-carbon practices.
With the right support, carbon farming can play a key role in reducing emissions and mitigating climate change. It is an important part of the transition to a low-carbon economy, and will continue to grow in importance in the years ahead.
What are carbon credits?
The Emissions Reduction Fund (ERF) is a Government fund setup to purchase Australian Carbon Credit Units (ACCUs). It helps Australia meet its emission reduction targets. One ACCU represents 1 tonne of CO2 emissions avoided or sequestered. An ERF soil carbon project enables a producer to generate ACCUs and sell them to the Government, companies or private buyers. Projects generate ACCUs by implementing new eligible management practices that sequester carbon into the soil. One tonne of Soil Organic Carbon is equivalent to 3.66 tonnes of CO2.
How do I get started in carbon farming?
If you’re interested in carbon farming, there are a few things you need to know. First, carbon farming is the practice of sequestering carbon in the soil. This can be done through a variety of methods, including no-till agriculture, cover crops, and managed grazing. Second, carbon farming can be a profitable enterprise. In Australia, for example, carbon farmers can receive carbon credits through the Emissions Reduction Fund. These credits can then be sold on the carbon market. Finally, if you’re thinking of getting into carbon farming, you’ll need to partner with a reputable organisation. We can help you get started and ensure that you’re compliant with all the relevant regulations. So if you’re ready to take the next step, contact us today.
Our people are some of best in the business. Highly trained and experienced, our teams in the field execute drilling and sampling of your soil to precise specifications. This gives proponents confidence in the accurate measurement of your soil carbon.
Our equipment is state-of-the-art. Our drilling rigs, like this one, are custom built to ensure minimal ground impact, access to difficult to reach areas, and industry leading measurement at up to 1500mm in depth (Industry avg. is approx 300mm)
A soil carbon abatement project requires the introduction of at least one new or materially different land management activity in each CEA which is expected to
increase soil carbon stocks throughout that CEA for the permanence obligation period. We work with our clients to determine the best approach depending on location, rainfall and other factors.

In most cases we’re able to help producers and landholders with carbon farming. It begins with a free consultation by one of our Carbon Farming Advisors where you’ll receive a relevant case study and other information allowing you to make informed choices about your carbon farming journey.
Undertaking a project with CarbonLink™ means you will have access to industry leading measurement and modelling technology developed to optimise your project return. You will also be supported throughout your project’s lifecycle by our team of in-house professionals. This includes specialists in carbon farming, ERF projects, soil science, remote sensing, modelling and analytics.
Measurement accuracy is the primary reason for partnering with CarbonLink™
