The Grain Growers Association (GGA) has welcomed confirmation agriculture will not be a covered sector under the Carbon Pollution Reduction Scheme (CPRS) but is now calling on the Government to develop a protocol to recognise farm-based carbon offsets.

According to the GGA, the position agreed to by the Government brings Australian agriculture into line with farmers in the USA and other countries, harmonising the way agriculture can mitigate global emissions.
