Promoting Improved Agriculture Land Management Practices

This is to bring to your attention that Carbon Friendly Pty Ltd and Carbon Friendly US LLC are acting as the Project Proponents for the above-mentioned group projects.

The Projects involve implementing a combination of project activities, including the application of organic materials and mulch to reduce the reliance on synthetic fertilisers and improve soil health; cover cropping and inter-row biomass generation; establishment of permanent tree crops; improved water management; and improved pastures and improved pasture management practices.

We have joined forces with several landholders and growers to act as Implementation Partners in executing these project activities.

The primary objective is to reduce and remove greenhouse gas emissions. As a result of these efforts, Verified Carbon Units (or Carbon Credits) may be generated and issued.

The Carbon Credits will be distributed to the Project Implementation Partners. The issuance of carbon credits is essential in acknowledging and rewarding the efforts of all involved parties in contributing to environmental sustainability.

This public notice aims to provide transparency about the projects mentioned above and their carbon credit claims. We strive to engage all stakeholders in this journey towards a greener future and seek your support and cooperation.
