ABOUT THIS EPISODE
Dairy Australia’s Carbon Farming Extension Advisor, Scott Jardine, speaks with West Victorian dairy farmer Brad Collins about how taking a practical approach to understanding and then reducing farm emissions not only improved sustainability on his farm but also boosted profitability and efficiency.
Brad shares his experiences - from the motivation to first measure his farm's carbon footprint to implementing carbon management strategies such as solar-powered irrigation, soil health improvements and feed optimisation. He explains the lessons he learned and how he sees a clear alignment and benefits between sustainability and profit with plans to continue improving his learning.
