Driving impact through research

This project aims to breed livestock (cattle and sheep) that produce lower methane emissions while maintaining or improving productivity.

The Project seeks to reduce institutional barriers to the uptake of decarbonisation strategies across industries by bringing together a team of experts and industry leaders in a facilitated policy-industry roundtable.

Developing high-performance, methane-mitigating multispecies pastures that improve sheep productivity, pasture resilience, and environmental sustainability in southern Victoria.

Developing pasture-based solutions to reduce enteric methane emissions in southern Australia while improving livestock productivity and sustainability.

Identifying pasture and browse plant species that can reduce methane emissions from cattle in extensively grazed systems.

Exploring the integration of solar panels into Australian farming systems to reduce emissions and enable zero fossil fuel farming.

Reducing agriculture emissions by developing low-methane emission tropical grasses for cattle feed.

Developing novel, waste-derived fertilisers that efficiently deliver nutrients to crops while reducing agriculture emissions.

Creating a shared evaluation framework, to inform investments.

Assessing new and emerging technologies to reduce greenhouse gas emissions in agriculture within a whole system context.
