Not Every Farm is Suitable for a Soil Carbon Project
Benefits of a Farm Visit beyond Carbon Credits
In 2024, Felicity Wheelwright, the owner of Roslyn Estate, collaborated with Atlas Carbon to assess the potential of a soil carbon project on her farm.
Felicity is a 5th generation farmer on the 800ha Roslyn Estate, running a mixed enterprise of 300 Angus and Angus-cross breeding cows, and 3000 merino ewes in the Crookwell region of New South Wales. She takes a dedicated approach to boosting the lands productivity, and wanted to know if a Soil Carbon Project could align with improvements she had in the pipeline for the future.
Discover the valuable insight that Felicity got out of a farm visit with Atlas Carbon, and what led to the overall decision that a carbon project wasn’t right for them.
Learn how you too might benefit from getting out in the field with our carbon advisors and grazing specialists for a property assessment.
