Zero Net Emissions Agriculture CRC is supporting the delivery of the national series of Train-the-Trainer workshops as part of the Australian Government Department of Agriculture, Fisheries and Forestry’s Carbon Farming Outreach Program.

A mix of one-day and two-day, face-to-face and online workshops will be conducted from 2026–2028, to support and increase the capacity of agricultural advisors to deliver information and advice to farmers and land managers on carbon farming.
