Soil Quality
Fact Sheets - Carbon Storage and the Esperance Sand Plain, WA
Sustainable management of soil, in particular soil carbon, is essential for the continued viability of Australian agriculture. Increasing the carbon retained in soil (also known as sequestration) improves soil quality and can also help to reduce atmospheric carbon dioxide. The Soil Carbon Research Program is working to identify land uses and management practices that growers can use to increase soil carbon storage and improve production in a changing climate.
