Nationally and internationally, governments and companies are making net zero commitments, driving demand for low emissions agricultural products. Understanding your on-farm emissions can help you access emerging markets, understand on-farm opportunities and increase your productivity, all while improving the environment. For our next webinar, agronomist and farmer Cam Nicholson will take you through a new, simple calculator from Agricultural Innovation Australia (AIA) and will give you a step-by-step guide to calculating your on-farm emissions. Cam will be joined by landcarers and farmers, who will share their experience and tips for calculating their on-farm emissions. Their learnings and productivity gains may surprise you. Calculating your on-farm emissions can seem daunting. But knowing your number is the first step in considering how your farm can be sustainable in years to come. Whether you want to inset or offset, knowing your number will help you understand your power in the supply chain.

Much work on human–wildlife conflict focuses on safeguarding wildlife from humans and vice versa, protecting humans, their crops, livestock and property from wildlife, and mitigating negative, sometimes lethal encounters, instilling the notion of humans and wild animals as adversaries. This conflict has been perceived as the norm, with coexistence a distant ideal. This way of seeing ignores the many ways people have coexisted with wildlife and co-adapted with wild animals in multispecies landscapes for generations. Join us as we explore how greater attention to Indigenous and traditional experiences and knowledge, and paying attention to coexistence, can reshape an understanding of human-wildlife interactions that decenter humans to actively support ethical conservation. Guest speaker: Dr Helina Jolly, Assistant Professor, Rubenstein School of Environment and Natural Resources, University of Vermont USA Facilitator: Professor Owen Nevin, The Western Australian Biodiversity Science Institute (WABSI)
