Talking soil carbon with Precision Ag

In this episode we’re talking about soil carbon – we discuss both the opportunities and challenges the measurement and improvement of soil carbon can present for farmers.  

We’re joined by Cam Nicholson, a soil carbon consultant and agronomist. He explains new technology that is being developed to measure carbon and the pitfalls farmers can fall into when carbon accounting.  

We speak to Precision Ag’s principal scientist Dr Kirsten Barlow, who explains why they’ve introduced an independent soil carbon baselining service – plus she’ll talk us through how technology is currently being used to inform and administer variable rates.  

We also talk to Richard Malone from Customised Farm Management Australia. Richard is based in Griffith in southern NSW and he tells us about what he sees as the potential benefits of measuring and improving soil carbon from a corporate farming perspective.
