Decarbonising Agriculture

Solar farms, wind turbines and new transmission lines across agricultural landscapes are a visible, and sometimes controversial image in Australia’s renewable energy transition. But there’s more to decarbonising agriculture than meets the eye - think bio-energy production from ‘waste’ streams, hydrogen to ammonia, on-farm energy supply chains to provide autonomy, and new technology to help measure emissions. The key to realising this bigger picture is innovation. This session will explore the challenges and opportunities ahead for an industry aiming to reduce its environmental impact.

This session will provide a bigger picture view of how countries around the world are rising to the challenge of improving agricultural sustainability, and the technology that will help us not only verify those claims, but go beyond mandated targets.
